I found a relevant GitHub issue! Upvotes welcome:
Ask for a new privacy level: "mutuals"
@zachleat Oh no, I very much hate this. I mean - sure - I get it. But it's bad news for us plebs who want to remain engaged with the 'rockstar' types.
@devolute oh no, not rockstars! 🥵
just for how I’d personally use it—I’d post things with this privacy setting that I currently don’t post at all 😅
@zachleat Yeah - not for me to tell you how to use your personal internet website computer. Just reckon it'll make some things worse generally. I'm here for the spice. It's possible to relish it without being a total knob-end to everyone. I mean, I try anyway. I dunno man.
@devolute I think that’s fair—got me thinking about people that create entirely new alt accounts for this kinda stuff. This could be one of those things that I ask for and then never use because it feels too cliquish 😬
#GoToSocial has a "mutuals only" post-visibility/privacy feature.
