Purge in progress. Deleted over 15 side blogs on tumblr that were mainly just name-reserves, restricted access and searches to my tumblr in general, tidied my SoundCloud profile, deleted my Woovit account, put all my DeviantArt posts into storage, adjusted some reddit settings..
I've had this username for far too long. 🤣

It's actually ridiculous how much less bloated I am by simply sticking to a low calorie diet for a week.

I also didn't feel hungry, my wife made the perfect 3-meals-and-a-snack plan for us and the consistency of it makes it really easy to follow.

Ah, the current state of the internet and its (old) social platforms is really encouraging me to do a purge of my own accounts. Tumblr is next, I guess.

Imagine this: Mastodon now ships directly with a built-in Matrix  server, all direct messages (DMs) are end-to-end encrypted and the DM interface is completely overhauled to look similar to Twitter. When you create a Mastodon account you also create a Matrix account with the same ID (ErikUden@mastodon.de ⇒ ErikUden:mastodon.de).

If a Fediverse server deletes this functionality, isn't updated, or you're messaging someone on an ActivityPub service that doesn't have it implemented, a DM just reverts to the old, unencrypted version, still through the new interface whilst notifying the user that this DM isn't encrypted.

Users can login to their Matrix account through any third party service using the same credentials as for their Mastodon account and don't have to use it only through the Mastodon web-interface, but it's optional on the new DM interface to only display DMs / group chats from Mastodon users.

Users outside of Mastodon can DM users with any Matrix account, tied to a Mastodon server or not.

Why re-invent direct messaging when it has already been done so well with Matrix or XMPP?

The reason I thought of this was because I found it so neat of Pleroma  to use WebRTC for direct messages, especially with the often better interface. The visibility setting of posts is one solution, which I think has its place even with this new DM feature I imagined, I just find it unintuitive.

The reason I wouldn't just implement what Pleroma already has is because it is unencrypted, and before you invent a new standard, why not just integrate a federated messenger into the federated social network?

What do you think of this? What problems would this new system bring and would you be in favor of it?
