@hpod16@eupolicy.social @lucien@toot.community I thought that private mentions are DMs. What's the difference between those and DMs?

@realcaseyrollins@noauthority.social @lucien@toot.community, Well, in my view, DMs would land in an inbox, and create a continuous back and forth between two people. If I stopped answered to your DMs, you would notice next time you opened your inbox. Private mentions happen in threads under posts. When I stop answering there, you probably wouldn't notice. I phrase it like this, because as a girl on the internet... I CAN get creeps in my DMs. So maybe I like that things are a bit more... decentralised here. Makes sense?
