I think I would just like a follow but muted, and muted privately. For scenarios where I like the person but their posts aren't for me, but I also don't want to unfollow or offend them with a public mute lol. I can manually go to their profile to see their posts once in a while.
Muted words is also useful, cos it takes away a certain amount of culpability lolol
You can do the public follow / private mute thing already in some clients. Amethyst and I think Snort support it.
Oh really? But isn't the muting publicly accessible? I was under the impression it always is 🤔
Private muting is done by encrypting the content field in the mute list event. Unforunately, we now know that this repeated encryption is slowly leaking our private keys 😭
I don't know what any of this means but I'm scared
Then you’re already dead
🤷🏻
