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?

Blocking is great. I truly wish more people would block. We would be able to all have a more enjoyable experience.

A shared suggested blocklist would be helpful for new users. Growing it organically is the way to go imo but I know some in my life who rawdog the internet w/o ad block without knowing they can do something about it.

If someone needs to be on a shared block list they should be banned.

You’re right. I guess a ban is a shared block list in a way.
