Curious to know the thinking/decision process behind showing the text “from 50 servers” 🤔

It does give the impression that many people are connecting from multiple servers, further educating folks about the Social Web. But do people need to be aware of them?

      @zhenyi@mastodon.social then I’ll just pity the engineer who look at this in the mocks, then think “oh now I’ll need to loop all accounts, grab their domains, dedupe and display the number”, not even knowing why need to show them in the first place 😬

        @cheeaun@mastodon.social Haha yeah, I bet it’s happening every day in many companies. “But 1 line of text looks so ugly!” 🤷🏻‍♂️

          @zhenyi@mastodon.social yeah… sadly true.

          I always question the designers tho’ (in prev companies), not to annoy them, but more like challenging their train of thoughts. Sometimes might end up with something better 🤞
