mastodon instance admins: how do y'all handle "I give you permission to share these private posts" and such? (how do I tag this for instance admins to see? #mastodon #admins #mastoadmins #needhelp )
@SoniEx2 I'm not sure that question was directed to me (I'm merely a moderator) but I didn't get it. ^^' Can you clarify what you meant ?
@Seipas If I DM someone some stuff and they ask my permission to repost it and I grant them permission. how is that handled? is it even handled? do they still get banned? etc (those are all the same questions but you get the idea)
Well, we don't see DMs except if they are reported, so if you don't report us the repost (and I don't see why you would since you gave the permission), yeah nothing happens.
I don't see why we would ban someone in a situation like this anyway, since you gave your permission. ^^'
You have to manually copy/paste to repost a DM, though, but as long as you have the permission of the OP I don't see why you couldn't do it.
I hope I answered your question.
