> DM limits

I've been wanted a way to forbid people to DM me for a long time. Thanks Elon!

Then you should have been happy in like, 2018? when they added that.

You could restrict DMs to people you followed for a long time. The only thing Musk did was add, and then force on for users, "only followers and people who have paid me eight bucks a month can DM you".

"Thanks Elon", indeed.


Ah, I only recalled that there wasn't a way to prevent DMs from everyone, not even people I follow, and indeed Elon's innovation doesn't improve that. Oh well.


The only thing forced was "only those submit to us AND spammers can DM you". Spam DMs still fills my inbox.
