They shouldn’t be able to do that!

      That should be a separate function: Muting, Ignoring, or maybe “Shadow Blocking”.

      Regular Blocking should prevent direct replies completely.

      EDIT: There also should be an option to make all or specific comments “Viewable by logged in & unblocked users only”. For maximum separation.

          Could be something negotiated between servers to continue being federated with them. I don’t think it’d be a huge ask.

          Worst case though, only people within the replier’s server would see their replies. That’s better than nothing.
