top 10 things that definitely should be implemented into activitypub: separate visibility and who-can-reply options

also more granular options for those, but that's less of a priority. twitter circle was one of the last really cool ideas that came from the pre-elon days and I'd love to see it come to different platforms. having the ability to limit visibility to mutual followers would also be really good. I can't speak for the feasibility of either of these though, they might be needlessly complicated

@eblu i think Threads supports this but not federated (if you use one of those options then it just won't federate), i wonder if them implementing it would cause Mastodon or Firefish to follow suit

@eblu it wouldn't be needlessly complicated but the issue is (from what i can tell) expecting servers to co-operate and have updates, idk how current servers will react to seeing a post with a privacy setting other than public/unlisted/private and they could end up leaking the post publicly

@ipg @eblu Pixelfed’s already basically implemented it, and I’m looking into doing it too
