Toots about "instance admins can read your DMs" have been going around. This is true and you should be aware of it! You should also be aware that it's true of social media and email services broadly: the companies that run the service store your messages and can read them.

But it did remind of a particular service that uses end-to-end encryption and therefore can't read your messages: Signal. If you are concerned about true privacy, good service to use. Also, their take on it entertains me: https://signal.org/bigbrother/cd-california-grand-jury/

@Rowyn One big difference is that here you can run your own instance... then the admin is you!In any case, one nice feature request would be E2E encryption for DMs.
