It doesn't bother people that their blocks are public?

It bothers some people. I think it's just something you need to be aware of. If you want to stop seeing someone's posts without hurting their feelings or whatever, you could always mute.

What I think is a tougher problem is that if/when it actually federates with a third party, the third party may not treat blocks the same way. I haven't looked at AT proto in while, I wonder if that is addressed or it will have to be a shrug.

Kinda how on Lemmy votes are hidden for plebs in the UI, but not on kbin.
