@noelle Would a 'Locked' user's statuses still be visible on the server? Or, hidden until the account is reinstated?

It might be nice to have a locked account's toots be hidden from the rest of the server if they've gotten the account locked. Or, is the assumption that an admin has already deleted the offensive content?

@kevinja I'm of two minds about that, and my instinct is to tie it in with a suggestion I saw (from @InspectorCaracal, maybe?) about non-public statuses in general: that there should be a "there's a post you can't see here" marker in the conversation, but not the actual toot. Does that make sense?

@noelle @InspectorCaracal Yeah, it totally makes sense... I like that idea. That way you don't have dangling one-way conversations.

@kevinja @noelle Yeah, exactly. And honestly at this point I'd just be happy with a note saying "you may not be seeing all sides of this conversation" or something, just, literally anything. 😅

The marker indicating there's a post not being displayed doesn't need to have any identifying information at all, and shouldn't imo except for its conversation and in-reply-to IDs
