How many users have you blocked? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

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

How do you find these numbers?

Edit:

Users 55 Communities 12 Instances 0

Edit #2:

BTW, this was easy to find in the default interface for my instance (Settings > Block tab) but I still can't find it on Photon. 😆

There's probably a better way but...

Open the page, right click, inspect, paste these in there and possibly expand the node list for users.

Users

document.querySelectorAll('.person-listing')

Comunities:

document.querySelectorAll('.community-link')

I had 0 users, but 69 communities.
