Friendly reminder that you should consider everything you say on the Fediverse to be publicly available and archived by your adversaries, who can and will use it against you.
"Quiet public" isn't saving you from that. "Followers-only" isn't saving you from that. Don't assume your DMs are private either.

in reply to Veronica Explains • • •the advice I was given years ago was that don't say anything online you that wouldn't say to a room full of people and I think that still stands
I'm quite vocal about certain things online but its nothing I wouldn't say in person and there is so much I just don't say on or offline

The way I heard it described best is to think of the internet as about as private as a public bulletin board at your supermarket or library. Even if you don't sign your notes, some people can see you put it up and who reads it.

That's better than anything you're going to get anywhere else including BlueSky.

TLDR don't broadcast your crimes on the internet.
