I really don't like that ActivityPub does not support encryption. I wanted to setup an instance of one of these platforms for friends and family to use, but hated the thought of having to tell them that, by the way I can read all of your messages. I wouldn't, but I hate that that's even possible. So, instead I'm trying to twist Matrix to work more like a social media platform. It's janky, but totally workable, so long as you're not looking for global engagement.
