wow this thread is so long already!
please forgive if I have missed somethings that have already been said.

also @tiago have you read @keks's posts on deleteable messages? he wants private messages that can be destroyed after.

• I recognise that public messages are not encrypted, so future network members will see them.
• group encrypted messages will probably mean most viewers (unless someone gives them the key) will come back to them. This is something I am personally motivated to work towards.
• twitter has delete but it doesn't work well, and people just screenshot stuff. at least if people expect signatures you can't claim someone said something they didn't.

It's very hard to implement a distributed delete that works well, and I want to build something that works really well. That said, I'm not against it on principle.

SSB is an open platform, unlike the silos, there is nothing stopping you from changing anything. Apart from the natural technical challenges, and collaboritve diplomacy, and getting people to use your feature/app, but if you can overcome all that stuff you can make it happen.

Pettitioning the current developers might work, but speaking for my self at least, already have an almost overwhelming amount of stuff I want to achive.

You currently can't vote on this, even with your wallet, but you can vote with your entire body and soul and make it happen.
