@BrianJohnson I should have been clearer. FO replies to FO posts in Mastodon go to the replier's followers. This means that FO conversations are only visible to people who follow OP and replier. It makes FO much less useful for personal conversations. I would like my colleagues at Mastodon to fix this!
