What does blocking on kbin actually do? I’m asking because it seems incomplete, to put it mildly. If you block someone, they can still see what you post and reply to you and you’re still sent notifications of their replies, even though you can’t see the comment itself (or any replies other people make to comments of an account you blocked). Plus, I blocked someone who was spent the last day downvoting literally every comment and post I make, and they’re still able to see and downvote my replies and posts. So what exactly is the point of blocking, if it doesn’t actually block people? Is this something that’s going to be fixed in the future?
EDIT: Oh, hey, the irony, the person I blocked was able to see and downvote this post. Which just proves my point, I suppose - block is either busted or what it actually is for needs a lot of clarification.
Looking at your reduces, the same person is down voting all my stuff, too. They’re probably running a script or something
What a fricking weirdo.
There needs to be a way to report someone to their instance, not just the mods of a magazine, like you do on Mastodon. People like this being a nuisance across magazines need to be handled at the instance level.
Oh hey, they found us on this thread
And here I’d thought they’d gotten bored and moved on.
To be serious, though, I have them blocked. I just doublechecked. In most places, blocking would make anything I post or comment completely inaccessible to them. They shouldn’t be able to see it or interact with anything. But clearly they can. So what does blocking do, exactly?
