The mastodon interface doesn't show the threading of a conversation, so it's super easy to get lost as to what's a reply to what. As a result, a mastodon reply to a thread can often be made at an arbitrary point and without really having a grasp on what else has been said and why, because it's all just presented in flattened feed.
