Sometimes you post on Lemmy and it gets a level of traction that you were unprepared for. Right now, that just ends up filling your inbox. It would be nice if we could mute posts and then no responses would be sent to the inbox and everyone else can continue their discussions.

    So I have a two part reply to this-

    1. If notifications cause you that much distress, social media will be inherently damaging to your mental health. At that point, it makes sense to mute notifications for apps entirely.

    however

    1. Being able to mute a thread is not something that would subtract from anybody else’s experience, and can only add to people’s who use it.

    So overall, I think this is a good idea
