@paulusveltman Thanks good to know
@ChrisMcClain You're welcome!
@ChrisMcClain both do exist, actually.
To send a DM, click the "globe" icon under your compose box, and change the privacy setting to "Direct".
To thread, just reply to yourself like normal.
@ChrisMcClain there are private toots which are only shown to mentioned users, which is essentially the same as DMing
@ChrisMcClain For threads - click on the ellipsis to show a menu, then "expand this post".
@ChrisMcClain "expand this status"
@ChrisMcClain For DMs, click on the globe (lower left), and choose "Direct"
@ChrisMcClain The globe then changes to an envelope.
@ChrisMcClain DM's yeah. Just set your privacy to Direct :)
@ChrisMcClain For a DM, click the globe icon below a new toot, Chris
