Martin mart-e is a user on mamot.fr. You can follow them or interact with them if you have an account anywhere in the fediverse.
If you don't, you can sign up here.
It seems like it would be a very simple patch to Mastodon:
Assign a specific CSS class to Direct messages, and make them appear on a background of a different colour.
It is intimidating and somehow misleading to you see your DMs appear in your "Home" timeline. May discourage some from using the function...
Or should we just wait until DMs are on their own dedicated column..?
@jz having its own column would make sense, as Mastodon is getting more and more users, the global feed won't be possible to follow very quickly and could be replaced by DM. But I like the CSS idea.
