I'm a "but..." because private accounts are kind of frustrating on Mastodon. When you reply to a followers-only post on Mastodon, for example, the response is legible only to *your* followers, not the followers of the person you replied to. So, the conversation diminishes rapidly. This is a bug.

Second, there's an in-between kind of audience -- a set of people that I don't know personally, but that I trust some smart moderators have vetted. Facebook Groups work like this, for instance; well-managed mailing lists and chat groups work this way, too. My hope is that the work that we're doing for groups in the SocialCG will help with this: https://github.com/swicg/groups

Finally, there's that extra step of end-to-end encryption (E2EE) that protects the content even from your (and their) server operator. I think the current work on bringing MLS to ActivityPub will help with that a lot. https://github.com/swicg/activitypub-e2ee

@evan So I think you need to think about audiences. Compare Bluesky. Mastodon launched very "closed" and Bluesky launched very "open". And Bluesky users all want *more* privacy features than they have, but the overall thing is Mastodon attracted a *very* privacy-conscious crowd and Bluesky less so. Which means I think some scraping-based features which are *entirely defensible*, and which Bluesky users would love, would find bad traction with the Mastodon userbase *specifically*. We self-sorted.

@evan Are the SocialCG "groups" different from the thing Lemmy is already using?

@mcc I don't understand your point. The whole thread is about avoiding scraping. I didn't say anything about adding scraping-based features.

So, a couple of people asked if this poll was meant to keep people from arguing against scraping, indexing, and training on people's public data. Nothing of the kind.

I think that people in our community, who hold our values, are likely to be very amenable to this kind of argument. I think that making that point verbally can be really helpful.

Signore e signori, dalla comunità scientifica dei virologi talmente bravi da poter insegnare anche diritto internazionale ecco a voi la nuova categoria giuridica del "CRIMINE DI GUERRA COLPOSO", fatto inavvertitamente e senza averne piena coscienza, che non consente di equiaprarti ai nazisti, ma solo agli sbadati.
(Per la cronaca, il Sismi sapeva perfettamente che le prove del Nigergate erano fasulle e che le guerre degli USA sono accompagnate da pesanti e ineluttabili "danni collaterali")
