Blocking Users

This page explains how the Block feature works on Front Page and how it affects interactions between users.

The Block feature allows users to protect their privacy and control who can interact with them on the platform.

When a user blocks someone, interaction visibility between both users becomes restricted across profiles, posts, comments, replies, and reactions.

Accessing the Block Option

Users can block another user directly from their profile page.

Steps:

1. Open the user’s profile page.
2. Click or tap the three-dot ellipses menu (⋮).
3. Select Block.

Result of Blocking a User:

After a user is blocked:

• The blocker can no longer see:
  • Previous reactions made by the blocked user
  • Comments made by the blocked user
  • Replies made by the blocked user
    on their posts.
• The blocked user can no longer see:
  • Previous reactions made by the blocker
  • Comments made by the blocker
  • Replies made by the blocker
    on their posts.
• Both users cannot see each other’s:
  • Reactions
  • Comments
  • Replies
    on third-user posts (posts created by other users).
• Other users can still see all previous interactions between both blocked users.

Community and Post Visibility After Blocking

Blocking does not completely remove visibility inside shared communities.

If both users are members of the same community:

• Community posts created before blocking may still remain visible based on community visibility settings.
• Previously shared community posts may still be visible.
  

However:

• Blocked users cannot interact directly with each other.
• They cannot see each other’s:
  • Reactions
  • Comments
  • Replies
• Blocked users cannot create new community interactions directly with each other after blocking.

What Happens After Blocking

• The blocked user will not receive a notification that they were blocked.
• Existing direct interaction visibility becomes restricted.
• Blocking helps maintain a safer and more controlled environment for users on the platform.
