Block list + unblock option?

Submitted by akjlddkjslfsd on December 29, 2025
Is it possible to have a list of all the users you have blocked from commenting on your content, along with an option to unblock someone?

(You can only view your own block list, i.e. you can't see which people blocked you or which users other people have blocked.)

I don't think it's a good idea. If you block someone - you must have a good reason. Why would u unblock someone?

I know could be a mistake but people should think twice before making any action.

Some people (like new users) might not know blocking is irreversible or might accidentally block someone by mistake, so I think it's still worth having.

Wait, just asking @Azeri, what did I do to get blocked by you? :(

I'm not sure about an unblocked option.

In my opinion, it gives (some extremely d*mb) people the opportunity to block people for fun or something. If they can't be unblocked, like it is now, people'll only block people for more serious reasons, ig

The "blocking for fun" you mentioned could definitely be an issue.

But IMO we can help prevent it by saying something like, for example, "Once you've blocked someone, you can't unblock them for [insert time interval here]"

This makes blocking irreversible in the short term (and possibly medium term) but not the long term, and perhaps people will be less inclined to "block for fun".

Tbh, I think what would be better is that people need to give some sort of a moderator a good reason in order to block, and that when someone gets blocked, they know why they were blocked, ig

I think the "report" option already does that, essentially.

Sometimes you definitely want to straight up block someone if they, for example, start spamming under your blogs.

But it's possible that they're not a frequent spammer and it's just an isolated occurrence, in which case you might want to block them temporarily rather than permanently, giving them a chance to reflect on and correct their mistakes.

That's what I think.

Yeah. I wish I had a second chance...

Just wondering, have you been blocked before?

I don't think so (don't know for certain since I can't see who blocked me), but I did block someone else by mistake, not knowing it's irreversible.

Oh ok.

I would like to see who blocked me and why though... but maybe some people will use it as an opportunity to hate? Dunno

i got blocked by Sasqwolf for disagreeing with their opinion one time (despite the one rule of the block button being “this is not a disagree button”) but yk it is what it is

I will certainly wish this was a feature. I have blocked at least a couple users before that I do not wish to be blocked, usually mistakingly
