      I do it through sync not sure what other apps have that function. It’s only for your personal viewing and I tend not to block people because I want to see the comment for the drama, but now I know not to interact with that person.

        So it’s a feature of the app you’re using and not Lemmy itself? I think having a tagging functionality would also be good for Lemmy.

          It gets misused ala reddit block list which seemed like a good idea but was co-opted to mean, anyone a small set of users disagreed with. Auto ban from half the sub reddits.

            …no? We’re talking about personal tagging, only you the user can see those tags

              Do you know what I was talking about? No. This is a block list that was shared so you could (what’s the word?) automatically fill your blocklist with a disapproved group of people. This is basically letting someone defederate for you.

                That may be what YOU were talking about. That is not what WE, the rest of the people in this comment thread, were talking about.

                You brought a “block list” into this convo where we were discussing user made tags that only the user who made the tag can see and aren’t shared and spread to others…

                  You don’t get it. You didn’t experience it on reddit, I get that.

                  Listen, people shared their blocklists (tagging if you want to use that word) and it lead to entirely innocent people being muted by hundreds. You with me now?

        Oh damn! I had no idea how expensive sync is (or that you could tag)! That’s nuts.

        Thanks for paying! Someone has to :D
