private posts are only sent to instances

Well, obviously they’re sent to some other ones, or else this wouldn’t be an issue.

This is a design flaw in the protocol. If your instance is going to send your private posts to other people, they’re not private. The authors need to fix your instance software, not demand that every other software in existence needs to “cooperate” and find out whether they’re “private” and not show them to the users if they are.
