The only way to protect yourself from trolls and stalkers on X - Hypertext
htxt.co.za
X users will need to make their account private if they want to remain safe from trolls and stalkers.
  • X is telling users that blocking will soon be useless and trolls and stalkers will soon be able to see their posts again.
  • Instead of blocking, X advises that users take their account private, the antithesis to what X and its progenitor Twitter was about.
  • This removal of blocking may violate Apple and Google’s policies regarding platforms that host user generated content.

    The block feature works on Mastodon as it does most places. Lemmy seems to be the only weird place where blocking isn’t a fully-featured option.
