    Not surprising, knowing how childish this guy is. I mean he’s literally promoting his own tweets in the “For You” tab to people who haven’t blocked him, despite these people not even following or interacting with his tweets in any kind of way…

      It’s insane how ludicrous his ideas in particular seem to be, especially with Twitter. This has to be trolling, surely? Or does he not want to allow people to block him?

        If you have your personal “ban from plattform entirely” button, why would you need a block button? Jeez you guys it’s so obvious.

    That sounds like the most stupid shit ever. I’m usually not the person that blocks a lot. I believe in 5 years of twitter i maybe blocked 3 accounts plus a couple of spam bots. But still…like…why would you think that this is a good idea?

      Completely agreed. I rarely or never use block features on any of my platforms that provide one (please Spotify, give me the ability to block songs already), but it’s just obvious that there should be a tool for users to protect themselves from other users abusing the platform. Especially on a platform that responds to user requests with the poop emoji, you can’t rely on the platform alone to police such abuses. And even if it isn’t for abuses, everyone should be able to create their own bubble over the one that is already enforced by the platform.

    First thing I did after he bought Twitter is block him. Did I hurt his feelings?

    (Not that I follow what’s going on with Twitter anymore since I found Mastodon.)

      You can’t block Elon Musk on Twitter. Tried it. If you reload the page, he is magically unblocked.

    I smile every time when I see that Musky did some more stupid shit, because I know that every time he does shit like that, Mastodon grows more. And with that, the entire Fediverse gets stronger.

    Go on Elon! Don’t Stop please! Kill Twitter!

      That’s probably why he’s doing it, so you and all the others who blocked him are forced to see his posts again.
