it’s goofy but you could do softblocks via an “antifollow” record. is that a terrible idea (I get the sense that people use it as a “gentle” way to nudge an annoying person away but a record is quite visible for someone being neurotic about it)
Basically once you follow enough people you only need the “follow” and “random from follows” feeds, and if you don’t like someone’s posts, just unfollow them. I think people are just obsessed with thought policing. Blocking is needed for dv victims, etc. but otherwise just unfollow 🤔
