@darius i'm not sure what the point of such a *server* would be, but as a *client*, i imagine it would make some sense. i'm thinking generic activitypub server and then an activitypub client that just shows you your inbox. i mean, everything is a "direct message" on the spec level, right? just, you're dealing indirectly with resources. perhaps you could have a separate Message activity, but it is also conceivable to add certain objects to a certain collection. maybe even both of these ideas. |
@darius Yeah. I’m in favor of a better UX. I’m even more in favor of fixing the glaring safety hole before encouraging new adoption. I’m a thoughtful server admin, but even I don’t trust me with your DMs. (And yes, I totally had the “I read your emails” sticker back in the day.)
