Hi friends! @PaulFerence​ and I built out a pretty straightforward change that allows users to mute DMs from folks you don't follow to help limit harassment vectors for folks.

We decided to create a PR to Masto if you're interested:

github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/

Lemme know if you have any q's!

@vahnj @PaulFerence needs codeclimate fixes then i will send it for review~

@vahnj rubocop? idk i have no dev env still 😅

also it needs tests!

@vahnj it'll be easy, promise

just like how it follows the pattern for only seeing interactions from followers? you should be able to find the tests for those and add a case that tests this dm setting
