I've heard it be encouraged that users should curate their own experience on Lemmy by blocking accounts, communities, and/or instances that you don't want to see. I imagine I'm not the only one curious how my total compares to others'

I'm at 142, and I'm unsure if I should pretend to be bashful about that total

I think I blocked a bot once, if that counts.

But I don't block people on any sites unless they start spamming me in DMs or whatever. I don't see the point of blocking people otherwise.

Same, I block communities but have yet to block a person.
