I look at it like this: I’ve seen, heard and read enough shit in my 48 years to know when I’m better off without certain types of people. So I block them. I’ll never have to read a comment and see that username again and go, “oh, this fucker again… ugh”
In no way do I suffer from this approach and lose out on some enlightenment or critical information.its a win, win.
Worst case scenario is I blocked a decent person, but I’ll never know and it still won’t make my life any less fulfilling.
And for the record, I dont spend my days blocking people. Maybe four to six people a month (on Reddit), probably far less here, because most users seem decently grounded in comparison, with far less emotional issues.
But fuck yeah, I do love the block function when someone gives me that bad energy moment. It’s liberating.
I hate discord now. It’s worse than reddit
Honestly, not having ads and being very usable for free, Discord is still pretty good IMO
It’s also not a forum
That’s an astute observation Watson. Hur dur
I only had to read two of your comments to know I never want to read another one again.
Time to look for that block user option.
Two is all it takes for you, huh.

You speak true, I can agree to this outlook.
