I’m asking for private notes, that only you as a user can see.
Just to exemplify, a similar feature is over at mastodon, where you click on profile and you see an “add note” message, another implementation is over at discord.
It is a really useful feature when needing to remember certain users, like when you are looking at why you blocked someone or for when you interact with certain recurring users.
Is there an extension or feature for this, if not, has it been requested on GitHub, or am I restricted to having to keep a manual list myself?
nothing on these systems is really private unless it has an E2EE option just FYI.
Would be best to have some kind of browser plugin id think.
I don’t know why wouldn’t they be private, in mastodon only you can see the notes. It could be made so that they are stored locally or by instances but encrypted
But I agree a plugin would be ideal, but as I have 0 programming knowledge I’m asking in case one exists.
admins can access the data, the data is only encrypted between your computer and the instance server. the system is not necessarily designed with keeping your content secure more than just your account. this is the case on most social systems however, DMs are not truly private, nor are private rooms, the only time you can have some level of assurance of actual private communications is with end to end encryption
matrix, another fediverse network has you covered for if/when you really care about that.
