They are similar to +`Note`s, but the addresing is done by having a single AP actor in the `to` +field. Addressing multiple actors is not allowed. These messages are always +private, there is no public version of them. They are created with a `Create` +activity. + +Example: + +```json +{ + "actor": "http://2hu.gensokyo/users/raymoo", + "id": "http://2hu.gensokyo/objects/1", + "object": { + "attributedTo": "http://2hu.gensokyo/users/raymoo", + "content": "You expected a cute girl? Too bad.", + "id": "http://2hu.gensokyo/objects/2", + "published": "2020-02-12T14:08:20Z", + "to": [ + "http://2hu.gensokyo/users/marisa" + ], + "type": "ChatMessage" + }, + "published": "2018-02-12T14:08:20Z", + "to": [ + "http://2hu.gensokyo/users/marisa" + ], + "type": "Create" +} +``` + +This setup does not prevent multi-user chats, but these will have to go through +a `Group`, which will be the recipient of the messages and then `Announce` them +to the users in the `Group`.
