@seachanger I wonder if there are mastodon alternatives that allow someone to disable commenting on a post by post or account level basis. That can allow people to make clear if their posts are open for discussion or not. I wonder if #calckey might add support for this.

@franktaber @seachanger I'd LOVE the option to limit replies to individual posts (e.g. no replies/ followers only/ people you follow), per Twitter

@adhdmarie @franktaber @seachanger For what it's worth, there's been discussion among the mastodon discord development channel about the need for limited reply settings for posts in order to be compatible on a technical level for Threads federation, so hopefully we get follower-only, following-only, mutuals-only modes sometime soon.

Based on the calckey alt I have on kitty.social, you can determine both original posts and boosts at different visibility levels, that should control for comments too for now. And for that instance (idk if this is *key-wide), there's a local-only option too. So there's public/unlisted/followers/local/direct mention. It's not quite mutuals but there's that.

I know bonfire is still in alpha but apparently quite stable, they do intend to have tiered access the way g+ had circles.
