@mattblaze @jimvernon @benjamincodes you could save a lot of words with this argument by just saying “don’t use mastodon for private discussions”, which, of course, should extend to *any and all social networks*
Every time I see this argument it starts with the straw-man of Twitter DMs and pastes it on top of Mastodon, without acknowledging any of the efforts already made to mitigate the problem. So then every thread devolves into the same discussion where the straw-man is picked apart.
