@one lol I was just looking for one too, that's unfortunate
@one who do you think I am, some kind of emoji designer?
@one @BurungHantu is just mocking me personally with his "neat" jokes, I feel attacked on this server
@one I was gonna thank you but realized halfway through the reply you were probably talking about @BurungHantu 😔 😂
@Mayana oh stop 😊
@dane Welcome to Mastodon! 😄
@Mayana but yes other instance admins could as well, so there's really no winning there. PMs on here are primarily for convenience. If you need *security* you should use a dedicated IM app like Signal, Matrix, etc.
@Mayana technically we can't because right now it isn't hosted on our servers at all so I really have no access. However, we will be migrating to our own servers soon so we will have full control over all data on our instance :)
That does mean I'd have the technical ability to do so, but honestly that sounds like a lot of work for little reward, I'd have to read the database somehow, and I'm not exactly a Postgres expert... and I have better things to do than read private messages anyways lol
@mastohost haha sorry if I seemed rude 😅 I just have a hard time waiting for things sometimes. We really love your services and definitely recommend masto.host for anyone looking to run their own instance!
@sheogorath great time to remind everyone there's other public #Matrix homeservers like the ones at https://www.hello-matrix.net/public_servers.php?show_from=Switzerland+%28Hosttech%29&sortby=Avg%20Response and other Riot web clients like https://riot.privacytools.io 😄
Time to end matrix.org's de facto centralization anyways.

For those who run on Matrix.org and wonder why there is no connection:
Matrix announced an emergency maintenance… on Twitter:

Sadly @matrix didn't receive the love it deserves and informs the Fediverse.
Anyway, that's why we have a community. We compensate short coming of each other and together make sure the world becomes a better place!
I should have a pinned message to new users.
Welcome to social.privacytools.io everyone! If you have any questions feel free to mention me in a post or DM and I'd be happy to answer them!
Also, adding a profile picture, bio, and an #introduction post will go a long way towards discovering new and interesting people in the fediverse 😄
Just a reminder to #Matrix users, you can still join with our homeserver at chat.privacytools.io and our Riot client at https://riot.privacytools.io/ 😄
@matt just curious, is there support for blogs on subdomains or custom domains in WriteFreely, or is that some Write.as closed-source functionality?
@one @metalbiker @BurungHantu @IPv7 it’s not issue 9525, it’s GitHub Issue *34* (https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/issues/34) i.e. one of the very first issues that STILL hasn’t been resolved. Easily the worst missing feature in Mastodon and they claim the “view full profile” link is an acceptable alternative to functional profiles 🙄
@matt @BurungHantu thanks! 😄
