I’m receiving unwanted and unsolicited DMs on my account, but I don’t want to use DM.
Currently, there appears to be no possibility to disable DMs however, which IMO should be an option that needs to be developed with priority. But I’m not a developer and it’s obviously easy to ask for prioritized options to be developed if you don’t have to develop them yourself. And of course, I haven’t got a clue what else has priority.
That said: where can I submit a feature request for the Lemmy developers?
And does anybody happen to know if it’s possible to block DMs on Kbin?
Thanks for the suggestion, but that’s not a suitable work around for me.
I use Voyager and consider it by far the best client, but I’m not going to switch apps because Lemmy doesn’t allow DMs to be blocked.
It’s also not just about hiding, but the sender should be aware the DM cannot be send.
If someone wants to bother you and sees that you can’t receive DMs, they might choose to bug you by other means. If their messages just go into a deep pit with no answer, they might get tired and leave it be. At least that’s how it works in gaming.
