Opinion on Elon Musk changing the block feature on twitter? - Is it a good move or a bad move?

[Alex Hogendorp]

Although I hate Elon Musk, I do agree with him that the block abuse on twitter is harsh.

I’m surprised the whole site hadn’t blocked him

and what’s “block abuse” ?

When you're transsexual and you hear an opinion that doesn't fit the curated world you are in so you block someone from ruining your world view.

What is it? This?


Who cares? They can't interact with them, they can just see the posts. Which you already can do on an alt account, or if someone archives it, or (previously) even while logged out.

It's bad, retarded people should be allowed to create a hug box in order to avoid having others criticizing them for statements that they publicly post.

 

[Point and Laugh]

I think this makes sense. If you set your useless opinion to “public” that’s what it means. It’s not “public except the transphobes.” Anyone who is upset could do what I do, just not use Twitter at all.

Feels unnecessary given all that's different is that people can still read posts while logged in, but ultimately harmless.

I don't think about twitter and neither should you.
