  • @mdione yeah, keeping the audience pretty much the same as the conversation grows seems very natural to me, too.

  • @joel LOL can totally relate. Me: "always take a snapshot of your instance before installing anything new or updating apps"... me IRL: forgets to take a snapshot and is horrified when things go wrong 😅 (thankfully it rarely happens)

  • @evan It isn't intended as condescension. The common saying of "you can't know until you know" applies. Until you run across what you can unsee or unthink it isn't a possibility.

    The Kathy Sierra debacle that was the final push that got Twitter to have their private accounts in the manner the put in place (as a stop gap) was a brutal wake-up call for many. The frailty of that system also was problematic and those, like Kathy, ended up leaving in the tens of thousands.

  • @LunaDragofelis @evan I think we have two different mental models about discussions on Mastodon (and social media more generally). And different people use different mental models, yet often assume everyone else sees things the way they do..
    One model sees a “thread” or a “discussion” as belonging to the person who created the first note and sees subsequent reply notes linked to the thread as being part of Alice’s (the original note’s author) thread. The other model sees a thread as a collection of individual notes, linked together, with each reply note in the discussion belonging to the reply’s author.
    In the model where Bob and Carol and Dawn and Eve are just replying to Alice’s thread, one might expect those reply Notes to go to whatever group of people Alice had originally sent her note to. In the model where each author owns their own notes, one would expect reply Notes to honor the audience specified in the reply Note itself.
    The confusion is made worse because the audience settings mean different things in different circumstances, and none of the clients are yet showing what those audiences actually mean for any given Note.

  • @ZenHeathen so, for Bob's followers, "Yes" with no context is worthwhile and interesting? That's what they followed Bob for -- to hear his half of a private conversation?

  • @vanderwal

    Your condescension is unearned.

  • @steely_glint @evan I like it. It's a good solution. But it does risk burying dissent in some corner cases.

  • @spraoi @evan no, I don’t think it does translate exactly, but it is about being faithful to Alice’s intent in marking the conversation followers only. I suppose I am giving her originators’ privileges- but that seems fair.
