The notion that Mastodon (and/or) Twitter as public conversation is not universal.
There's a lot of people, especially in other language that use the social media as microblog or casual coversation. I'm Indonesian, and a lot of people here using Twitter as "anon" account for random rambling (basically microblog) without even interacting with anyone (except IRL friend).
Even Mastodon (and other fedi software) has feature for followers only post or quiet posting (cannot be viewed in live feed, or discovery).
Thanks for explaining. I use group chats for IRL friends. It's strange that some prefer mastodon because of the twitter format. I suppose it's like private Facebook groups.
I like the sharp distinction between private stuff and searchable stuff. So it's good to have them as IM vs forum formats.
