@zetasyanthis @KawaSeadrake This is what most people consider the #1 problem with Mastodon and as a result the person responsible for it has announced his intention to switch the messaging systems to a more secure format to alleviate that issue.
In other words, a fix for that insecurity is in the works and will likely becoming sometime soon as the dev considers it a top priority.
@mawr @KawaSeadrake That's good news. It's a major factor in preventing me from using this site as much as I would otherwise.
