I've been on Mastodon for over a year and I never experienced anything that could be classified as a technical glitch. From a tech / UI perspective it feels very polished to me.

I guess the only exception would be that old posts are sometimes missing on profiles from different servers.

Thank you, that's helpful to know:-). Kbin had MANY issues and that was the closest I'd seen.

It seems to confirm that what is holding Mastodon back isn't technical at all but just the design - i.e. like if people are on X then that's where most other people want to be, similar to Windows where it is not technologically superior, just the default for some reason.
