What is this?

Under Blocked users you find all profiles you have blocked. Here you can review blocks and undo them when needed. The list is completely private — nobody but you sees it.

How to open the list

  1. Open Community > Settings > Blocked users.
  2. The list shows all blocked profiles with avatar, name and date of the block.

For more than 20 entries a search appears at the top — you can filter by username.

Undo a block

  1. Click the profile in the list.
  2. Choose "Unblock" in the menu.
  3. Confirm the security prompt — the block is lifted immediately.

After that the person can see your profile and read posts again, but does not follow you automatically.

What happens after unblocking

  • The person can open your profile again and see your public posts.
  • Existing follow relationships are gone — both have to follow again if desired.
  • Earlier mentions or likes become visible to you again.
  • No notification — the person is not directly informed that the block was lifted.

Permission

No special rights needed.

Tips

  • Look through the list once a year — some blocks may no longer make sense over time.
  • When unblocking, decide right away whether you want to follow the person or be followed — otherwise the action feels half-hearted.
  • If someone repeatedly harassed you, rather keep them blocked — the list takes no effort from you.

Frequently asked questions

Can blocked people see that they are on the list?
No. The list is completely private — only you see it. Blocked people are not officially told they are blocked but notice it through the functionality (e.g. your profile is no longer reachable).
How many people can I block?
There is no limit. You can block any number of profiles. For very long lists (>100), the search at the top of the list helps.
What happens when I undo a block?
The person can see your profile again, but does not follow you automatically. If you want to follow each other again, both have to click "Follow" anew.
