I've recently turned into a blocker. - Divisions by zero

I always felt like it was wrong to block an account unless it was smth absolutely insane. Nazis etc. But now I’m blocking people who’s tone I dont like, or who are baiting or actingnin bad faith. I know I can’t do it as a mod. But i can certainly do it as an individual now. Judgy comment? Blocked. Unnecessarily confrontational? Blocked. This is new to me, literally 3 days. Wonder how this affects my feed. Only disappointing thing is they can still see and respond to my posts, just that I can’t see it. I wish they couldn’t see anything I posted either. What are your blocking habits? If you do block a lot of people, has that affected your experience?

i do the same you are not alone. besides nazis, PROPaganda, or conservatives. condescending, passive aggressive, or “actually this is or that is wrong, and why you should do this or that to be better” i will block them too. or try to correct you on what they believe his “historically correct of a mythos”.
Oh yeah the um actually is annoying

"No. { Several paragraphs of argument that's not mutually exclusive }"

Arghh hate that shit. I don't know why online argumenters love to start with "No and." I don't block because of it but man, nobody learns how to have a constructive debate anymore.
