Removed features/radically changed behavior
minimalScopesMode
As of !633, scopeOptions
is no longer available and instead is changed for minimalScopesMode
(default: false
)
Reasoning is that scopeOptions option originally existed mostly as a backwards-compatibility with GNU Social which only had public
scope available and using scope selector would''t work. Since at some point we dropped GNU Social support, this option was mostly a nuisance (being default false
'), however some people think scopes are an annoyance to a certain degree and want as less of that feature as possible.
Solution - to only show minimal set among: Direct, User default and Scope of post replying to. This also makes it impossible to reply to a DM with a non-DM post from UI.
This setting is admin-default, user-configurable. Admin can choose different default for their instance but user can override it.
