@anthonyrossbach Congrats on the launch and good luck 🍀 If you need some help with the logo and brand identity, feel free to contact me!

@musharofchy Thanks!

@intrepidleeloo Only data is the stuff people post, we only have simple analytics by plausible and all that really does is show traffic but not user specific stuff. We just don't collect data like other places do. If you cant see it on your profile or settings we don't have it.

@anthonyrossbach I see, but you allow direct messaging with other users, right? Are those messages truly private?

@intrepidleeloo As private as they can be, staff cant view them that's why we made sure that until you accept a chat with someone all content is not shown to them. They are encrypted with a key not stored on the same server but thats as far as we can go. Funny enough the web is not designed for end to end or we would, it's the same reason FB messenger has been trying for years to add end to end encryption but has not and why things like iMessage are not on the web. To do encryption like that you need to generate public and private keys, but the problem is where do you store them as users can login on different devices. They need to be stored server side somewhere and that makes them about as good as an encrypted key.

@anthonyrossbach Thank you so much for the thorough reply. This is the detail I was seeking and it's way more reassuring than what Twitter has done.
