It was always a big oversight that, while Fediblock exists, you’ve never been able to control comment permissions. This has created unfortunate situations where, when harassment and dogpiling suddenly happen, there’s little the original poster can do about it.
Well, this will soon change.
npub12tyk735v52ju032qahe3k2r520jlsujaem6xr8n0ex6u7eqj0anq59vnqc (npub12ty…vnqc) has pioneered comment controls and we can all use #Pixelfed as a model to build a safer #Fediverse.
Thank you to Pixelfed for this big step in community safety!

quoting⚡ Post Comment Permissions
note1dja…27pa
Pixelfed pioneered the ability to disable comments per post, and delete remote comments.
We can do better, and we are!
Soon you will be able to limit post comments to various segments like:
- Only accounts I follow
- Only mutual follows
- Only local accounts
- Only X accounts
and more!
One more thing, we're publishing a standard for this so other implementations can support this too! #pixelfed #postCommentPermissions
