    correct.

    when composing a message you can also set the visibility to whoever is mentioned in your message exclusively:

    those messages aren’t encrypted, as stated on the banner above

      To elaborate on the lack of E2EE, this doesn’t mean your ISP or so can see the content (the traffic between you and the server is encrypted as part of HTTPS), but your instance admin or anybody else with access to the server could.
