Until some time ago (a few weeks or so), I’m pretty sure I could still come across comments written by users I blocked. I know that because I started to tag the users because of that. Now I’ve noted that not only comments by blocked users are completely hidden from me, but the entire thread starting from them, including responses by other users, is invisible.
I’m not really sure if that’s the intended behavior (and if it’s piefed or my instance that does it).
Yes it’s supposed to be the entire thread and always has been.
Were you using a different client app, before? Possibly some apps do the blocks client-side and behave differently.
Okay, thanks for the confirmation. I’m still using the same app, but I guess it’s possible something changed with an update of it.
