Tonight, I realized that when a post is submitted with visibility set to "Followers Only", none of the #MastodonApps display that intent other than a tiny lock icon (sometimes). It's not differentiated well.
Yes, it's not a direct message, but it IS something the author wanted to specifically share with their followers rather than the general public.
In my #MastodonStarterKit, I tried a border glow for them. Makers of official apps can do better - this is just a concept! :blobcatcoffee:
@box464 Mona for Mastodon, which is in my view hands down the most accessible Mastodon app, makes this very clear, at least to VoiceOver users. I can't comment on the visuals.
@JonathanMosen Hi Jonathon, I just listened to your Mona related podcast yesterday! Very informative, thank you. I'm glad Mona is providing much needed accessibility features and hope it inspires other apps to do so as well.
Mona does include the words "Followers Only", but easy to overlook. Better than other apps for sure, where it
appears as a tiny lock icon near the top of the post with no text, which is difficult to understand meaning and often ignored with all the other visual clutter.
