   Yes they can. Currently, the only way to DM a person is to reply to a post. Each post lets you toggle the Likes and Reply (DM) feature for that post. So if you leave the Reply toggle off for all posts, you won't be able to receive them

   Thanks! You're right, there's currently no RSS. Might change that in the future, but I haven't given it much thought just yet. I agree that blogs are making a comeback. It's about time. We're in need of some sort of

    Hey folks! I'm Louis – the builder (founder?) of Nicheless. I'm not sure how it got here, but I'm grateful that it did. Nicheless is a fun little side project I created for people to share their thoughts with the world withou
