@plsburydoughboy he's an obvious fascist, about as far from socialist as you can get
@u2764 this really doesn't make any kind of sense as a criticism of anachronism

@Ashoka i thought it would be something like that, i saw posts on the forum raging about sjws, so i search tumbler and just found hundreds of of posts complaining anyone could haves something negative to say about a police costume.
genuinely not sure if the far right/liberals is trying to start a fake outrage against sjw and blm over officer dva or if someone actually criticised the skin and they are just so offended that they wrote hundards of posts about how good cops are

@tallpanicgrass not as much as you'd think, unless I accidentally turned on safe search
end to end encryption is great, I love it, use it when you care about message privacy or want to chaff your metadata for when you do need it
its just basically irrelevant for most privacy concerns here. yes, having dms unreadable by anyone but involved parties, forever, would be great
but all that's needed for the 90% of the way is to guarantee it remains unseen by anyone but addresses and admins
I keep seeing shit like this.
and at this point I can't comprehend anyone misunderstanding so badly.
the difference between data privacy and "I don't want an audience" is huge. both are privacy. one is using a pm, the other one e2e
one risks immediate pushback if the wrong people see it (which, for many, is a large population). the other, usually consequences later and immediate. but e2e requires enough setup that it's rarely worth it for most use of a dm/pm

@ink_slinger i think its not so much that people are stupid as they are trained not to think critically about things, because thats not usfull for capitalism.
regarding scale, that can be solved buy federating small groups together, if a decision only effects a group they can decide it, if it effects multiple groups they can all come to a position, mandate a delegate with that position, and have all the delegates meet to try and find a result that is acceptable to all groups.
"Communicating to the development staff that these features are important to you is the best way to ensure they are made priorities and quickly implemented. The current project manager for Mastodon is @maloki, and you can (respectfully!) contact her with any questions you have about these new features."
"If you're really not comfortable with this change, you should petition your instance's administrator to hold off on the update until better features are in place."
"So what changed?
...
In an attempt to fix this problem, as of the 1.3 update, Mastodon now will share your private posts with every server that follows you, regardless of whether or not that server supports privacy settings. The name of “private posts” has also changed to “followers-only” in the user interface to indicate that these posts are no longer truly private."
