i cannot add more blocked users so i went one by one through that list … starting from the first one i blocked. Not surprisingly, looking at each account, they are either Banned or have No Activity Since ~1 year.

Eventually there could be some site maintenance for [ Banned + Empty ] accounts so to clean our block lists accordingly …

Some other optimization of this type could be made … i believe it would free the server from useless work since the server have to compute removing according to Long Block Lists … this task could be heavy in server work …

What do you think ?

    I’m over 200 blocked now. It would be nice to have that site maintenance idea working to clear out my list. I’ll have to remember when I hit the limit.

      @MrKaplan, administrator of Lemmy(dot)World, answered my wrong(?) post here …
      My post would make users believe there is a hard limit in Lemmy at something like 250 entries for the block list. This is what i thought while creating the post … but further analysis by the administrator revealed the problem could be with CloudFlare.
      Please take the time to read the thread to this effect somewhere inside this post.

        Very weird. I can’t see MrKaplan’s post unless I logout, but he isn’t in my blocklist. Maybe he’s blocking me? I don’t really know how the blocks work. Weird, but not a big deal.

          You will see posts and comments of anyone who would be blocking you … it works only one way. The problem is, I am quite sure, that instances do not synchronize properly

          … can’t see MrKaplan’s post unless I logout

          You see them fom : sopuli.xyz but not when you are loged in there ? ? ?
          … I must agree this is a really weird one !

            I probably messed up something somewhere. And, yep, I can’t see MrKaplan at sopuli.xyz, but if I open in a different container tab where I’m not logged in, still sopuli.xyz, I see the posts. It’s not just MrKaplan, but really it happens on most pages. I’ll see <x> number of comments, but I can only see one or two. It’s been like that for a long time, I just can’t be bothered to figure it out. ¯\(ツ)/¯.
