Comment on When you block someone on Lemmy, does it stop them from seeing your posts?

  It’s actually better. If they were prevented from interacting with you, they could just make another account and continue.

  This way they don’t know they are talking to the void.

  That’s where the philosophical argument comes in.
  If you want to see something or comment on it, that’s your choice. But it’s not a choice you should be able to make for others. They have the right to express themselves, just as you do. You wouldn’t be happy if they silenced you. If they trashed you and you couldn’t respond because they “blocked” you.

    True, but that is not what the aim was. I see your point though.
