Posting to contacts belonging to all selected aspects (Conditional AND)

FL François Lamontagne Public Seen by 122

First, I just discovered Diaspora* and I think it's incredible! I'm very excited by this project.

It would be great if we had the option to post to contacts belonging to ALL the selected aspects.

For example if I select the aspects "french" and "politics", I would like that only my contacts who are assigned to both "french" and "politics" received the post.

This should probably not be the default behavior, but having the possibility to do this would allow us to target the audience of a given post even more.

Let me know what you think of this idea.

I agree with Jonne. The feature itself sounds interesting but I think the proposed implementation would confuse users. Aspects are already hard to understand and this adds another layer of complexity.

I think it's an interesting concept, but I just don't see how it could be implemented without causing confusion to many more people than it would benefit.

We need to remove complexity, not add it.

Here are two small mockups showing how we could integrate this feature.

Jonne Haß, something we don't see in the mockups is that this option would only appear if you select at least two aspects, which is something not very common I think.

I,m do not think this will add another layer of complexity, not aspects are difficult to understand, we thank google copied Diaspora aspects and called circles in her social net googleplus (in g+ can choose several circles, aspects ), thanks to them people already know this concept. :)

Pump.io also allows choose several groups and this does not seem to be a problem.

I agree with Juan, diaspora* users are not morons.

What can cause confusion? People who want to use Diapsora just like now be able to continue doing without noticing difference.
