- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.

- Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world

Don't we have reciprocal blocking on Piefed? Or maybe it only works with Piefed users?
Im not sure about that, but he can still seem to see my posts with me having him blocked. So it must not work federation wide. This was something again I found with mmo chat. Blocking someone is like giving them invisibility powers. You don't see them but they can see you which is some way is creepy. All the same if its a flasher its worth it.
He might use a non logged window to see your posts.
Let me try, I'm curious now.
No, because he would not be able to cross post from the logged on user if he could not see it from the user.
I just tried, between Piefed and Lemmy the mutual blocking doesn't work indeed

We suspect this is because lemmy does not use standard activitypub protocols for blocking and so does not respect two way blocking.
Mastodon has two ways blocking, right?
Yeah

@rimu@piefed.social, it seems like mutual blocking does not work ?
Edit: it works on the same instance
