Once again: I want to be able to turn off people's ability to PM me. Checks for "accepting PMs" doesn't even have to be in the codebase for every type of fediverse server code; but each instance that decided against PMs, they could check incoming messages vs the recipient and, if rejected, simply send back a message saying "This user is not accepting PMs."

maybe a setting to only allow DMs from people that you have interacted with before (upvote, comment).

I'd love to be able to disable PMs. No one has any reason to PM me on Lemmy as far as I'm concerned.

I think this is the answer.

At best this is spam, at worst lemmy is being used to harass this person.

Not knowing anything about the lemmy codebase, I also suspect it would be the easiest solution to implement.
