@pwaring@social.xk7.net people do make use of blocking and muting differently though. I for example usually prefer muting anyone who gets on my nerves or spams stuff that I don't want to see under a hashtag or who interacts in a disrespectful way. I have many many accounts muted - so they don't even know I don't want to see them and their content and so they don't get agitated or aggressive. I reserve blocking only for the most vile accounts or for the most aggressive spam accounts and these are few.

@pwaring@social.xk7.net Not sure how many I have, but I’ve blocked and reported a bunch of obvious spam / scam accounts, so more than one. I’ve blocked a couple of real accounts, but only when I’ve seen behaviour that I just don’t need to see or risk interacting with in the future. Mainly prefer to mute, normally for a short time and see if I still feel the same way in a few days.
