Do you have a criteria for what qualifies as block-worthy offence or are you just doing it when you feel like it?
Bonus question: how long is your block list?

Oh absolutely. A huge number of the people I’ve blocked are probably perfectly decent people and I just happened to notice them write that one snide response.
However, I’ve quite often seen blocked people commenting to me and I’ve logged out to read the comment and I’d say about 50% of the time it has been a mean comment only proving that I blocked them for a good reason. I also sometimes go thru the modlog and a huge number of the the users I see there I have already blocked.
I agree with your point though. You’re right, I just don’t care. There’s so many people here that when I block someone there’s another to take their place. There’s just too much to pay attention to.
Thats fair, I’m here for the different perspectives and opinions, so I have noone blocked right now.
Even trolls give honest answers if you ask why enough, its interesting to learn how people think.
I completely agree. It’s not an echo chamber I’m trying to build here. I never block anyone only for having a different opinion. Quite the contrary; I actively look for a debate. I just don’t want to engage with people who do it in bad faith.
