it's funny actually... when alice first appeared in my replies on Twitter I muted the account for aggro bad vibes but still saw her replies occasionally when I'd scroll n view the muted ones and eventually unmuted in one of my periodic amnesties...
I don't have big lists on Twitter but temporarily mute ppl who are annoying me as like "probation" and to think twice before writing an irritated reply ... it's a loose private system for managing my mental energy which doesn't create drama bec it's illegible and the only result is not replying
here otoh I feel much more exposed to ppl who are looking for a fight and will screenshot and misinterpret and quote-dunk, so I'm trying out blocking as a proactive defense to avoid being a target... still hoping to reverse course at some point if the site grows and I become a relative lowbie again
