@das_g @colinstu oh, to be clear, I know things go sideways in real life too. In fact they can go much more sideways than they can online.

But I brought this up because fundamentally I believe there are no social systems built into this platform right now. Replies just go into a big bucket. We have deliberately made likes not really matter. So there is no way for anyone to signal any issues except by directly replying which is not tenable.

@TechConnectify @das_g @colinstu y'all, need to calm down.

How did it come to murder and death?

I've read your conversation.

I think, I agree with someone who said before - yes, it's quite annoying that sometimes replies are hidden before "read more" button.

At least in Twitter.

From the other side, for those of you, who wants a "private party" why won't you.......like what???

On Mastodon, you can limit who can see your post.

If you want only your followers to see, set your post to "only followers" or if you want invite only those who do you want to, you can always set it to a "Visible to only who mentioned" mode.

So, nothing stops you to do a private party thing.

Any other questions?

@expert Re "murder & death": Well, mas.to/@TechConnectify/1115173 stated that in RL, people would stop someone throwing stones at someone else, and I thought: «Unfortunately, that's not always the case. Sometimes the crowd, too, will pick up stones and throw them.» And my post that resulted from that thought very much seemed like it'd warrant an amended content warning, especially considering the rules of the instance I'm on

@expert re "private party": I guess not so much in the sense of an invite-only party, but in that of a party on private property or organized privately, thus a party where the host is shown some respect and can lay down some ground rules. However, that currently seems to be more the role of instance admins than of thread OPs.
