Yes, i try not to involve pixelfed users in DMs. And i was looking at the part of the code. And private was translated to followers only, that's why it happens.
I believe you 100%, that this is not an easy fix. I also don't know how this could be solved without adding a new privacy layer. I haven't looked it up, but isn't that defined by the protocol?
I know #hubzilla also has possibility to show posts only to some selected users. I fear the same thing will happen? I haven't tested it

@dansup @joergi Dan, you probably should acknowledge that in the past for many months now you've been promising certain feature fixes, the new WebUI and such but missed all of those deadlines.

This new approach you've outlined is welcome, and the Pixelfed community appreciates it, but it's ignoring all of the bad blood and reputational damage you've done to yourself.

You need to earn trust back from the community, and right now no one cares about this.

Stringing everyone along isnt going to work anymore. I'm sorry.

Good luck to you though. Nothing but love.
