What my perfect use-case would be:

• Private instance (@mydomain.org)
• Allow other instance USERS to be able to DM me (user@matrix.org --> me@mydomain.org and vice versa)
• NOT allow my instance users to join rooms on other instances (child@mydomain cannot join room@matrix.org)

But given how DMs are essentially rooms...I'm not sure that level of fidelity is possible

I'm on the same path trying to find a solution. Is it possible to just whitelist certain accounts without all the public rooms. E.g., I have my own instance, but want to allow a DM from friend@matrix.org without allowing public rooms or other random DMs?

As far as I can tell...you can't. Debating just using XMPP instead.

This is the feature I need....I can overlook a lot if I had this.

I'll stand with you!

Fair enough.

There is generally some truth to clickbait titles...and the more you agree with it, the less clickbait-y it seems. "Crushing blow" is unnecessary rhetoric in my view (and I'd bet 50 cents AI wrote it).

I'm actually not arguing the intent of the article...rather just how I hope this community raises the bar in discourse.

I prefer to avoid clickbait titles and discussions around soundbites. If you prefer clickbait titles and rhetoric, so be it. I was hoping for something different.

This is the sort of discourse I left reddit for. Hope your reply made you feel better.

I agree with the sentiment....but hard not to say this isn't a clickbait title. Let's not rely on rhetoric....let's speak with data, details, and specifics to help foster actual discourse and constructive disagreement.

Can we avoid clickbait titles? Really hoping the Lemmy community is better than what Reddit turned into.

Ruffle.rs had not heard of....besides the nostalgia of Flash, what do you use it for?
