Does anyone even use the "Mute User" button when there is a "Block User" button?

I just don't understand why you would "Mute" someone. So if you "Muted" someone, let me know so I can get why we have this button.

I mute them because they post annoying "questions", not because they're insufferable people

Hmm that is a great point. Thank you
I don't block I usually just ignore. I do use the mute button and that's for the people who repost the same thing over and over again clouding up the feed. (People who make it really difficult for me to ignore) I just mute them so I don't see their post, but everything else is still the same. I feel like if I were to block someone it would need to be serious like harassment or something. I can tolerate much of anything else

Thank you for answering. I can see why muting is a good thing to have

The ones that never reply but ask repetitive questions. Wanna chat? Are you horny? No on both accounts. Totally seeing shallow catfishes.

I use the mute button often. As far as I can tell, it hides their stories and questions from the feed.

theres a limit to how many people u can block so i guess some people use it for people that annoy them but still think arent worth the block button...or something like thaat. i never used it tho
mute is like block except u can still see people reply to other peoples post btw

O_O THERE IS A LIMIT TO HOW MANY PEOPLE YOU CAN BLOCK?! But there are too many stupid people on the internet for one to have a block limit! 😭

lmao im not sure ....but im assuming there is

That's why I'm paying 3 bucks a month to block up to 70 million people.

[c=#003BB2]I think in 'mute' you can still see each others messages and stuff wheras in block you just permanently block the user from messaging you at all and stuff? I'm not sure either really I'm just assuming 😂 [/c]
I'd rather just have the block option.
I figured it was back up for when the blocks run out?
