@hansw@freemo Can I add/remove circle participants after sending a message to that circle, and, if so, would they gain/lose access to content that preceded their entry into the circle?
Well thats tricky. Because your original message is cached and messages are assumed to be immutable in the fediverse you should not be able to change it after the fact unless you delete and redraft.
@freemo@hansw Okay - so it sounds like the circle members get "baked in" at post time; the post doesn't just reference the circle - which may contain different members at lookup time from at post time. Am I interpreting this correctly?
@freemo@hansw Thanks! Now if only we could get an "inherit audience" option for replies, which retrieves the audience of the parent comment and bakes *that* in as the audience for the reply ;)
Right now followers-only is kind of crappy because if you make a followers-only post, by default my reply will be followers-only. So people who follow you but not me, or me but not you, get a fragmented conversation view.
