I just realized that I accidentally blew someone off at WWDC last week because their “Private Mention” got buried under everyone being super kind and saying nice things last week and now I am really motivated to figure out how to better stay on top of “Private Mentions” on Mastodon.

@rmondello
@MonaApp has a tab for private mentions. Not sure about @ivory though, sorry.

@rmondello This is definitely a gap in today’s Mastodon clients. FWIW, Mona has a dedicated Messages tab for viewing your visible-to-mentioned-people-only toots. But it it’s the only app I’m aware of that has this anymore. Seems like most anyone who had any sort of DM tab took it out in response to the outcry of “but private messages aren’t really private in the Fediverse”. Which is a legitimate concern, but I’m not sure that entirely removing the UI for it was the right answer.

@dmnelson @rmondello On the Android side Tusky still has a dedicated private messages tab. The tabs are configurable, but by default it’s there.

@dmnelson @rmondello on the web, the delightful @phanpy also lets you see only private mentions (besides styling them clearly).

@dmnelson @rmondello That's why we keep it as "private mentions" in the Mastodon web UI while changing the wording to show that those are not "private messages”.
We know this is a thing to solve in the ecosystem, but as with many things, it needs resources and there is a severe lack of money/time that we have not yet been able to solve.

@dmnelson @rmondello The @IceCubesApp also has a DM tab you can enable (they’re still calling them direct messages). I don’t remember if it’s enabled by default or not.

@tobiaalberti @rmondello @IceCubesApp Oh, thanks for pointing that out! I missed that that was an option in Ice Cubes. 👍

@dmnelson @rmondello Yep, this is my bottom tab bar on @MonaApp for .

Left to right:
• Home
• Notifications
• Lists
• Hashtags
• Search
• Messages (active)
• Bookmarks
• Explore
• More

I’ve changed some of the icons because the defaults weren’t as intuitive to me. (Another point in ’s favor)

@rmondello I really hope we're going to get a dedicated tab for them in Ivory 🤞

@rmondello Toot! does this, by the way. Separate tab, and new direct messages appear as little bubbles with the sender’s avatar. Also has grouped notifications.

@sindarina I never realized seeing direct messages was an issue for some folks since the two apps I use, Toot! and Mona, both provide for this.

@jeridansky Yeah, I suspect that Ivory will get around to it eventually as well.

@gruber @rmondello could have easily been the best new app this year but strong competition with the all new calculator app 🤩🥳

@gruber @rmondello it looks very good indeed! I’m looking forward to use it.

In the meantime: you published a shortcut to open the current password manager that could be used as a button in the current iOS: can you point me to it? I need to install it in my moms iPad
