[#111] Blocking a user (two-way mute)

Muting a user makes the target invisible to you and prevents notifications by the target. However, the target can still see all of your content. A block feature would do the same but also hide your existence, along with your content, from the target.

I think this is a pretty good idea, and second caveat might come out of a question in a private bubble instance, where each person gets an account and only one, so they can't logout, if the content is hidden, and can't register another account as they are only given one to be able to register.

But if you consider it to be public content, by blocking someone your content should have to be entirely private, else the second caveat would apply. I think I changed my own views.

I'd aggree with it on private instances, but on a public instance if every post is visible, whilst I understand you might want to block them, the caveat would make you have to make it login view only, but they could create more accounts so it'd be making a account private, but then having to have a allow/denylist would be a bit too hard I think. And it'd greatly reduce the userbase that can read your content, which in such a small community as this is splitting.
