I would prefer if people I block couldn't see anything I post

[-] smeg@feddit.uk 39 points 1 day ago

Err... you know all these comments are posted publicly and anyone can view them, right?

At least on Twitter before Elon changed things, the same thing applied, tweets were public but you could still block people.

Currently, X displays a “You’re blocked” message when trying to view the profile of a person who’s blocked you. In addition to blocking all posts, it also prevents you from seeing their replies, media, followers, and following list.

Did twitter have private accounts?

[-] griefstricken@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 day ago

Yeah locked accounts are pretty commonly used in conjuncture with public accounts.

I can't see them. I can only assume [TheAlbatross(https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/u/TheAlbatross) has blocked me.

Who said that?

@TheAlbatross

One of the problems is that if the post is public, anyone you block could just log out and see your post.

Hmmm you're right. Okay.

I would prefer if people I block were hurt a little.

Wowww this comment says a lot. Have you ever considered that if you were given the ability to 'hurt' people who you think deserve it, that other people could use that same ability to 'hurt' people who dont deserve it? Maybe stop focusing on retaliation for dumb internet disagreements and go touch some grass.
