Do you have a criteria for what qualifies as block-worthy offence or are you just doing it when you feel like it?

Bonus question: how long is your block list?

    I’ve never blocked someone. Idk why. Maybe too much action for something that doesn’t make any big difference.

    This isn’t meant to judge over people who block others, there could be good reasons like stalking etc.

      I think I’ve blocked one or two people on lemmy. Only because they like to spam posts all at once and it will fill up an entire page with just their shit.

      Outside of that I’ve never blocked anyone, nor do I ever really want to block anyone.

        Ah I see, that’s more like a content block. Wouldn’t a filter do the same, I bet they spam to the same topics?

      It does actually make a difference. Especially on a small platform like Lemmy. I’d say that around 50% of the time that I see a blocked user make a comment and I log out to read it, it just confirms that blocking them was the right choice.

      I don’t block people either because my mom didn’t raise no pussies.

      Some people are just completely deranged, like, pathologically deranged. Those people just annoy me, and I don’t want to get annoyed/angered every time I read their bullshit.
