I generally try to avoid it as well, but when someone makes it clear that they are either a troll or utterly divorced from reality, I have found that the forum is just a better place without dealing with that nonsense.
I have read that the developers at Discouse.org are philosophically against individual user mute/ignore.
At least, that was true a couple years ago. Maybe still. It really seems to be a kumbaya mentality that is for a community of polite and kind people. Maybe they did not anticipate the vicious hate that people put into their posts about our president or the lies they post about our president’s supporters. I would welcome the ability to ignore the hate and the lies.
Good lord… you must have a good memory. I understand that you must be angry and hurt if you have been wronged by posts in the past. But posting now for revenge seems … at odds with our attempt to make America great again. Such revenge posting also seems at odds with the spirit of the new forum.
So … again. I would welcome the ability to mute/hide the revenge posters.
Not sure why you are asking me to follow people on Twitter. I have had a Twitter account for years. But I only use it to view posts from our president. As an early user of the internet and early adopter of social media, I grew out of the need to extensively “follow” numerous people or to have them “follow” me.
