    Or anyone else with the knowledge to answer

    Why has the feature to block an user been removed? This question has probably already been asked, but I would like to know the answer.

    I would like to see the return of the block/mute button too. That way I can personalise the community feed to my preference.

    • While I don’t know the direct reason, it would most likely be because the block button wasnt implemented properly back in the day, it was pretty bad and if i recall correctly was just added so epitaph can stop getting mad over pointless stuff

      If it were to be reimplemented again, it’d likely have to be fixed or improved, or just entirely overhauled if necessary

        It was a website plugin from a dude that went on radio silence on the thing for like 3 years and was ridden with tons of issues.

        Blocks ended up being abused as all hell and the site was melting due to the half assed coding from it.
