Ugh. The #mastodon APIs do not make it easy to make a direct message UI.

@abrahamAbraham Williams ultimately it's not DM at all 😬. (I can even reply to you here with 'private mention' visibility)

It's pretty confusing.

If you have a fediverse account, you can quote this note from your own instance. Search https://mastodon.social/users/cheeaun/statuses/115358368818638675 on your instance and quote it. (Note that quoting is not supported in Mastodon.)
