Limit replies to followers #1746

Often, I just want to talk with my own audience and not random passerby that came from feeds. I've read the proposal about reply-gating, and perhaps it would be nice when that feature becomes available, there's also option to limit replies to followers only.

Of course if some people really insist to troll, they can just follow, reply, and unfollow. If you want extra safety, you can see Tumblr—they allow gating the replies to followers who have followed for a week. But I don't know if in Bluesky it would be viable or computationally heavy.

This feature is on the way, actually! It's implemented in the API and we just need to catch up.

Cool! Excited to see it.
