This should be a pretty basic feature, just not having a private message be there anymore. But for some reason that does not work here?
I tried searching for this. I found a year old open issue on GitHub and some reddit users complaining about this very issue.
Talking with some people in the comments here, it seems like some people don't understand that one might not want a message to be in their face. Or the idea that just because something could be recovered doesn't mean we should treat it as an absolute
oh wow, this platform really is not well put together. Let's hope that with the attention it's getting there might be some investment in better planning of the features on here
tbf, I'd still rather be here than reddit
