@Mastodon @Gargron thank you for your work! i have a question: did you consider to establish the option of not allowing replies? this would give the op more power over their post as opposed to nudging other people to reconsider replying.

@yaenntz @Mastodon @Gargron I was wondering if that function exists, sad to hear it doesn't. Personally I use social media to be, you know, social, and it'd be nicer if people who want to use it as their personal journal without response could do so on their own, instead of posting snarky shit when someone has the audacity to respond to their public posts.
