Regarding private toots, if you intend to keep them private be sure to check the new "Authorized followers" page in settings, which will let you see which servers of your followers will receive your toots.

Oh yes and "private" has been renamed to more fitting "followers-only".

@Gargron Hi, where can I find the procedure to update an instance? I'm just getting started on this :)

@Gargron Great move! I'd suggest ditching the lock icon as well, for the same reasons.

(Sorry if this is already done, my local instance hasn't updated yet.)

@HerraBRE Lock icon is a metaphor known from birdsite, so it will stay

@Gargron Makes sense. However, since they control their network they can make stronger privacy promises than you can. It's not the same thing.

Just think about it. 😄
