consider: a mastodon option that makes it so that your posts are inaccessable from the default public interface (you just 404)
people have to have an account to see your posts exist

@Gargron @TheKinrar
Is this possible?
@ChristianD @Gargron @boots technically I'd say it is, but:
- not really useful, right?
- other instances may publish toots and non-mastodon instances _will_
- a new privacy setting? new users are having difficulties understanding how that works, maybe we should not make this more complex :)
@TheKinrar @ChristianD @Gargron it's good for making sure your toots aren't hotlinked and spread everywhere
it could go under the settings page like Lock account
since when has mastodon cared about not-mastodon 🙃
@boots @ChristianD @Gargron (reminder: I'm not in the Mastodon team and so _I_ care about not-Mastodon :p)
Just use the followers-only mode then.
