I honestly don’t get the whole excitement about “on Mastodon, admins can read your DMs” or “DMs on Mastodon are totally different from Twitter”.
They’re not. Did people honestly think that their Twitter DMs were “private” in any meaningful sense?
Jesus F. Christ.
@Alex @slothrop I don't understand that part though. If E2EE is part of DMs, then how do you report abusive messages? The Admin can't see them, so can't confirm that they are real? Surely then you could end up with people claiming to the admin that they received a message from someone that said something, that it didn't say, and there is no way to prove it one way of another.
