I’ve never blocked anyone. 14 years of reddit and now Lemmy and there has never been a reason to. I find it weird when people do it.
I get it if someone is harrasing you, but an anonymous disagreement? Meh, whatever. If I am done I just quit responding and move on.
I suppose being online since the 80’s gives you a little bit of perspective. Don’t feed the trolls, everyone is a liar, and nothing anyone says matters unless you want it to.
There’s a couple I’ve blocked, because they’re simply incapable of having any type of discussion unless you’re rabidly in agreement with them, and they immediately turn to insulting anyone who disagrees.
The only weirdo I know that blocks people left and right is one that signs every comment with a “no AI license” thingy. Anyone that correctly comments how that’s useless/pointless because bots ignore that is blocked

And never use social media.

I got some of the stalinist people like cowbee blocked because they are extremely annoying.
