Friends!

There is a TON of improvements we could make to Private Mentions (often called DMs on other platforms) e.g.
* getting them out of the public timeline
* Having a stronger notification tied to the Private Mention tab
* (amount other things)

But here is my MAIN question: How critical is it that these message are encrypted? I'm not against encryption! It's just complex and will take time. If we were to make some UX changes as a first pass WITHOUT encryption would you be OK with that (at least for now?)

If you MUST have encryption, that's fine, please do me the favor of replying explaining why you need it.

I use Mastodon DMs.

I want encryption, but there is something higher priority for me —

Being able to see ALL the DMs for a single user (that I have talked to) in a single place. Rather than having them scattered all over the place.

I get that these scattered DMs are the result of separate conversational threads, but — I would still like to see them all (from a single user) in one place.
