Thanks, I did reply back when I noticed it. They seem to be collecting other people's posts on the topic at the moment. My main concern is the misconception that federated protocol provide ambiguous "security" that is: > Safer social media experience https://joinmastodon.org/ https://joinmastodon.org/ There's noting safe or secure inherent to federated social media.

"Safer social media experience" refers to user safety, i.e. moderation and safety tools like content warnings, phrase filters, mutes, blocks, and the various quality of life improvements to those features.

  I know what you mean and I agree. That's not what I think is being conveyed to the people I link that page. They take those descriptions as it applies to their own posts, "your messages are safe". When I am put in the position to need to explain that Mastodon isn't an end-to-end encryption platform I've lost them completely.
