first one is not possible on a technical level. best they can do is hide it so it looks like it’s happened but they’ll still be following you.

second one isn’t possible either. you own your own data. bluesky cannot prevent this.

I think that would be if I am following someone and only want to see their posts but not their reposts in my feed. Not prevent people from reposting my post. (also it's been in the works for two years, so its probably not a priority)

If that's what you want for everyone you follow, you can pin this feed:

sadly that’s only going to hide it. you’ll always be able todo it. just like you can still reply to posts and quote even after they’ve been locked with a threadgate.

you own your data. nothing can prevent you writing a record to your pds.

I was going to reskeet this because I agree but
