Replies to people I follow are displayed in my home timeline. This has a few negative effects:

• Personal conversations with people I don't know are in my TL but uninteresting
• Broken threads are directly on my TL if visibility level is "Private"
• Social implications of a reply are more like Twitter's "Quote-tweet" than an OP-directed reply (this is subjective, but in my experience on Mastodon, it's much nicer the latter way)

Specifically for me, on my pleroma I'm constantly seeing people PDAing to people I don't know or follow and couldn't care less / feel uncomfortable seeing all the time.

Apologies if this has been discussed and rejected, I tried to search open and closed issues and didn't find anything.

Thanks!
