@tim @textfiles I think it's fair to treat it as a public forum with no takebacks, which is essentially what it is - the problem as I see it is that that's not properly explained anywhere, most people don't seem to understand it; instead they're fixating on far more tenuous threats that come from outside while the real issues are inherent to the platform.

@Bloonface @textfiles despite all of this, I'm still comfortable being on this platform.
I guess in my mind I'm always treating this as a public forum. No take backs allowed.
Perhaps I've just not been bitten by this in a way that would change my views?

Interesting post by @Bloonface about revocability of content on the #fediverse.
I've been listening to a lot of @textfiles talks recently, and he's touched on similar points, the tension between the right to be forgotten and archiving efforts.
Certainly feels like a similar tension laid out by Bloonface.
