Clarification on post types
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I want to understand who'll be able to see my posts when I select the different post types.
Describe the solution you'd like A clear and concise description of the different post types, specifically Unlisted and Followers.
Describe alternatives you've considered Creating several mastodon accounts, following my NC Social account with one of them, not following with another and trying all combinations.
Additional context
As of now it seems to me that:
-
Public - Open to everybody, subscribers see posts in their home feed and all users on the server sees it in local - it will be available on the public profile page once it's active.
-
Unlisted - Available in Followers' Home, the feed of the author and not in Local timeline (as per #1074).
-
Followers - Available in Followers home, the feed of the author and not in Local timeline?
-
Direct - Anybody's who's @'ed.
I'm new to the fediverse in practice and ActivityPub based platforms and 2 is quite confusing to me, it would seem logical to me (a non-experienced Twitter/AP user) that being only available to me and my followers would be for Followers only. I expect "Unlisted" to not show up in any lists, including followers and going just by the name seems almost like a "note to self" post option.
