@miki@dragonscave.space @twilliability@genart.social @birb@rss-parrot.net This is the kind of feedback that makes no one want to work on new things: immediately labeling the UX of a "beta" RSS application as terrible 7 hours after its initial release and calling what is potentially a small oversight a "dark pattern", which is objectively a very negative phrase to label a situation that is likely not even insidious or attempting to hoodwink users privacy at all. Why not just make a suggestion instead of coming in hot like this?

@tristan@hachyderm.io @twilliability@genart.social @birb@rss-parrot.net This is clearly not an oversight. It would be an oversight if the bot straight up ignored DMs. The bot is specifically coded so that it replies to DMs, telling you that DMs aren't supported. I find it very hard to believe doing that was less work than actually making DMs handled correctly.
