Comment on Unsubscribe from users without blocking them - Is it possible, at all? If so, how?

I don’t think you can separately block posts/comments.
But I wish we could for the opposite reasons. Lots of people post pretty good articles, but have terrible takes.

Haha, especially then! I wonder what’s preventing the dev(s?) from making this possible.

I’ve considered two reasons why Lemmy user and mod functions are very limited.
As someone who first started using reedit around 2010, I do recall that most of the features were added with a big update at some point a few years later. Called “new reddit”. And then additional mod features where also added over time.
Lemmy isn’t as old and probably doesn’t bring in the same amount of revenue.
Especially since reddit used to sell reddit gold which also was a major source of income. And allowed them to invest in software designers.

That’s a fine summary there, thanks. I don’t think #2 would be a real threat: it’s a bit like if Instagram wanted to sue Facebook because it also has a “follow” button. I totally understand the rest, and either is more than enough reason. Well, I hope they get there once, though.
