Account clone documentation incomplete

From the 'help' documentation, § 'account cloning':

"
Hubzilla offers interesting new possibilities for privacy. You can read more at the <<Private Communications Best Practices>> page.

Some caveats apply. For a full explanation of identity cloning, read the <HOW TO CLONE MY IDENTITY>.
"

How to help fix the broken hyperlinks?

Crazy behaviour with hyperlinks unable to reply to posts

Clck to navigate to hyperlink 'contribute hubzilla contribute' (blue text hyperlink title)

Clck to navigate hyperlink 'post', unable to comment

Why 'direct message' icon?

Why unable to reply to posts?

Forum does not show latest post?

In reply to the post ( https://hub.volse.no/item/1dd69f34-36a5-4e44-93db-0c0e91453c62):
another analogy is academic research, where an extensive review of the literature is performed before new knowledge is proposed. Similarly, a surprise that programmers do not evaluate extant software before new proposals are made. In the example, there is no apparent reason why they propose what they do.

Improve collaboration within fediverse

Why do free(dom) software programmers often choose to ignore other projects and try and replicate extant functionality?

Is it because of their poor inter-personal skills?

Why do people write love songs when there already are so many great ones? Is it because of songwriters poor inter-personal skills? Why do people play another soccer match when there have been so many great ones already? Is it because of soccer players poor inter-personal skills?

Maybe the level of inter-personal skills are not a huge factor in why programmers repeat or extend or rewrite what other programmers have already done?

Maybe the programming language it was originally written in has become unpopular, so in an effort to ensure a future for it, it is rewritten in the new language or a new version of the old one.

Maybe the original version was programmed in a monolithic way, so a rewrite needs to be done before a new programmer can extend it with new modules.

Maybe the original version lacked built-in privacy features or poor protocols so all posts have to be public or are accessible to anyone with the link without authentication and authorization.

Maybe the original version did not lack anything, and other programmers just want to try their hand at creating something like it or better simply because they can, not unlike songwriters and soccer players creating new love songs and playing new soccer games.

Permissions images

@Hubzilla Support Forum

Previous post ( https://zotum.net/item/f19d2f94-edd6-43ee-94f4-451cb78d183a), has a comment ( https://hubzilla.fediversum.de/item/ebf0aa58-823d-469f-a41b-6af47f9ef148) about images not being visible.

The option of a post, 'attach/upload file' allows images to be added (also multiple images) without any instruction to set permissions for the images.

Forum post confusion

This post has revealed many further questions.

The original post was to 4 destinations, but the source post does not show the full message source (e.g. the syntax of the addresses of the destinations, contribute@zotlabs.org, etc.).

The images indicate further confusion. Connections with different permissions, contradict the delivery report.

The account has a number of connections, some have no contact role and are able to accept all content (i.e. has a green circle in the connection avatar). Some contacts have a contact role 'default' (the only role, roles have _not_ been created), with content acceptance status 'null' (i.e. red circle).

Hyperlinks to forum posts are confusing. The hyperlink 'hubzilla | contribute' is: https://hubzilla.org/channel/contribute. Open the link, then the post disappears from the stream! The title of a recent post about unification of documentation, says it all... a confusion, a mess. The hyperlink for the 'post': https://zotum.net/item/618e666d-612f-468e-902b-53939bcaaca6 shows the message with an envelop icon, mouse hover states it is a direct message??? There are no comments visible.

Similarly, the hyperlink 'hubzilla support forum', https://zotadel.net/channel/support takes _minutes_ to load. Eventually a different comment is seen. A pity there is now way for multiple posts to be interconnected.

The forum 'hubzilla users support' also shows different content between the view in the account stream and the hyperlink: https://zotum.net/channel/hubzillauserssp

Confusion, confusion...

First install the Contact Roles app (from top right 'hamburger icon' - +Apps - Available Apps - Install it - Installed Apps, select the star if you want the function to appear in your list of apps, or just select the Contact Roles Icon and now define the role. After doing that, go to Connections, find the contact, Edit, and select the role.
