MODERATORS
Yep, I have about a dozen each for blocked communities, blocked users, blocked instances.
Need to pump those numbers up, rookie numbers
I only block the instances.
.ml, lemmy.today, dbzer0.
Life is too short to deal with annoyance you don’t have to. Block liberally.

Rude, blocked.
i find it funny that just ignoring someone means the other person can post unchallenged
genuine engagement takes effort, but we all know that's not what lemmy was really about despite what people claim
effort
I was blocked by an entire Lemmy front-end.
Huh?
Tesseract was a fairly well-made Lemmy front-end, except it silently blocked about a thousand people that the creator thought were toxic, including me.
God forbid I wanna watch a guillotine bounce off the rich.
Nah, why bounce? I'd prefer it if it went right through.
Damn that's petty lol
Eww, a Pawb.Social account??
Blocked.
I try to only block the spammy kind, not the ones that I simply disagree with.
It depends on the "disagreement". If you say you like pineapple on pizza, I'll forgive your sin against the gods. If you say something transphobic, I'm blocking and reporting
Why block? You can’t report them every time you see them then! I only block spam accounts that don’t get removed after like a month of reporting, it’s impossible to keep an eye on transphobes or nazis if you block them.
Blocked OP
That’s so petty, blok’t
Consider yourself blocked, too!
I can’t believe you’ve done this.
Believe it
...shit
I think it's okay that people block each other for petty things. Only don't be surprised if you're sitting in a room by yourself one day. People do this everyday socially. Let's pretend that nothing in the last few months didn't happen and why is this happening?
Yep. Every person has a different tolerance and it’s okay for them to draw their own boundaries.
I do think it’s weird when people feel the need to announce it though.
I block chronic reposters. When I see the same post 5 times a look at the posters profile and if it's the same post for pages I block them. I don't usually block the assholes because it's important to see what bullshit they're spewing.
I block all those weird thirsty accounts that always reach the front page. If I wanna spank the monkey, I'll decide it on my own time and have way better places to do it.
Tbh i block many people just because they only post like anime memes/comics and stuffs that into communities that i'd otherwise want to follow. Why not? Its not like they will be sad that randomuser#1341576915 blocked them, and it's nothing against them, just the content they make is annoying or inapproperiate to me and this place is all about that. I'm pretty sure they'd rather have this than other people going into their comments and insult or be rude to them for absolutely no reason, that's just dick move. Someone may block me after reading my comment just because i don't like anime stuffs, and why not? If they think my personality can annoy them in the future while seeing nothing relevant in me, why would they not be allowed to simply choose to not get any of my thoughts at all.
My previous instance blocked lemmy.world and other big instances. Why? I had to migrate because 2/3 of my subscribed communities were gone
Some anti spam meassures are not as good here as on major sites.
I generally like the openness so it doesn't bother me I sometimes need to take matter into my own hands and block, but if my timeline is full of one idiot posting the same unfitting spamm in ALL communities, they get blocked fast. That's what the button is for.
People become drunk on power, I smite thee. In your attack on me you attack the world and this I cannot have.
Lemmings are proud of their little echo chambers and love to announce it to the world when they blocked someone. That's why we get insanely violent and hateful takes so regularly here. Many here often whine about popular social media, but this place is in some respects far worse. I'd say 10% are full-on psychopaths.
