Thank you for the great feedback, it really means a lot to me :)

I added this edit to the /v/IdeasForVoat request:

Words don't hurt anyone, but a single user following another user around the site can generate a lot of crap in their inbox. It would basically be a spam filter for you inbox, even if it's something as basic as: don't make a red envelope notification when this user replies to me, and all of their comments in my inbox are collapsed by default.

somehow you've got me nodding my head in agreement here and i've got nothing - - that's a fair way to allow the edge of it to be diminished without creating a single-serve shadowban experience for users. i really appreciate that delicate balance struck there.

sadly tho, i don't see a code like that coming out for a while. and we're not even talking voatgoat's awful money troubles in the way of good shit like this being implemented, just on a technical level, giving users options like that seems...

and all those preferences have to be stored, more space, more ah yes.. moolah.

voat'sgreatagain! wooT!eeeeyeeeaaah chilz the hellz!

I can only appreciate your reasonableness, SaneGoatiSwear :) I appreciate all of the great feedback.

And don't underestimate what the voice of a community can do. Voat's admins listen to the site just as much as I listen to /v/gaming, and if the community voices this as a priority change can happen. It certainly solves a lot of problems at the sub level and preempts any anti-harassment rules for each sub.
