    I suppose it depends on the platform. If you are on Discord e.g. and only are on servers where you trust most of the userbase to be solid people, I can imagine it’s fine. But like, X? Facebook, Instagram? Fugedaboutit.

      Idk, i don’t get DMs at all on Instagram, i can’t speak for Facebook (but i guess no one uses it nowdays so let’s ignore it) and Twitter but i would expect people on Twitter to DM you

        I’m not tryna find out, I disable public DMs on all platforms where I don’t expect people to know me unless I add them (back). Strict policy. We either tight like that or we’re not talking.

        Unless it’s Facebook Marketplace in which case yes ma’am how are you today, yes this item is still available, what nice weather we’re having, what time can you pick up, and is that your sister, oh it’s your DAUGHTER, how lovely!
