@evan The most common situation where one of my follows makes a follower-only post is where they're asking for advice, help or sympathy for a personal issue. I don't want my own followers to see my reply, as that could expose sensitive details about the issue. But I do want the OP's followers to see it, so that we all know what support we've already offered and can avoid spamming them with unnecessary information.

@evan Sure!
Does this wording make sense?
When you post a followers-only post, who do you expect replies from?
My own followers (MOF)
MOF + repliers' followers (RF)
Mutual MOF + RF
Something else?(Trying to be concise!)

@vanderwal actually, most social networks default to having Bob's reply visible to Alice's followers. That is how followers-only posts work on X, Instagram, and Facebook.

@evan probably. I don’t see that as an intrinsic problem. The constant broadening of the audience is one of the vices of commercial social media. Maybe Bob has 2 options , Alice’s followers or the (smaller) intersection. But he shouldn’t be able to widen it against Alice’s intent.

@aeva Autonietzsche.

Great idea; you should make that poll.

@evan In Friendica we have got the rule that the thread starter decides the audience. Especially when someone posts just to a selected group of people, we put then in cc and then the reply will go to all actors in cc as well.

@reiver so, like sitting in a room with someone while they talk on the phone, and you only hear their side of the conversation.
