Lists?

Mastodon revealed a list feature, a few weeks ago. For me this looks like a simple contact collection but I may be useful for Friendica too. So some contacts could be shared with others.

I do not use circles. Am I right, circles are post streams (timeline) from a collection of contacts?

@vegos_f06 Circles are working in both directions. Means it is a collection of contacts that you want to read in a dedicated timeline and a list of contacts you want to publish to.

  @heluecht So it's similar to a group. I list would be a collection of accounts to share without their content. Just a list of their handles.

@vegos_f06
You mean a circle that can be published and that others can follow?

    A circle is a collection of contacts (family, hobby, profession, etc.).
