Blacklists feel more like reinforcing the echo chamber than moderation.

  Then you are free to not subscribe to any of them, and see every post. It is under your control.

    A lot of the popular users subscribe to the blocklists uncritically. It breaks the UX of the site if you get placed on one.

      As the plaform matures so will the blocklist ecosystem. Hopefully blocklists with good appeal mechanisms will win mindshare.

      Users are not entitled to the dissemination of their opinions. Either you let users block other users or you will turn your site into a cesspit.

        No, I am talking about as a reader. If you are blocked, you cannot follow threads, even if you never post.
