They shouldn’t be able to do that!

    I’m not trying to enforce rules on other communities.
    im not even trying to enforce rules on any community

    reddit-style blocking would allow the person to continue to be in that community, they wouldn’t even need to be kicked out.

    its crazy that you’re framing personally blocking someone so they cant reply to it as though I’m changing the rules for lemmy communities.

    Like, OP wasn’t even saying that blocking someone should hide my content from the person I blocked, just that it should stop them from replying to it. it doesn’t even have to be reddit style, it just has to be more than shutting your eyes and ears and saying “lalalalala”

      It is, though. By your actions you would change what someone else is able to do, regardless of what community they’re in. By blocking someone you’re creating a new rule on what that someone is allowed to do and see across all of the Fediverse.

      That’s the fundamental disagreement here. I don’t think this is acceptable. You can change what you see, and moderators can change who and what is allowed inside their community, but nothing you do should be affecting what someone else can do across all of the Fediverse.
