Handling of DMs on social.librem.one

However, I disagree that this is a reason to leave librem.one. Purism’s stance on moderation is bold and brave today. I 100% support it.

Uhuhh, I explicitly emphasized above that I support the idea behind disabling DM (privacy concerns, unwanted content), but that I criticize exactly the same as you do:

@2disbetter

I have DM’d a number of Librem.one users, and always wondered why I NEVER got a response from any of them.

That’s fine however. Purism’s policy supports my argument above (although I would argue that social media should not be encrypted at all), but I would think that some kind of notice or disclaimer could be placed on Librem.one accounts.

Also I wrote why I think that the function of DM does help to make the social network better:

@ChriChri

I believe that direct messages serve an important social function: People do not have to carry every argument or misunderstanding into public, but can ask questions and have exchanges before reacting in public.
