I don’t understand why would anyone have to explain themselves to anyone.

Ignoring someone deliberately without telling them why is a form of passive aggression and is likely easily the biggest type of passive aggression on the internet.

I disagree with that view, if I do not want to listen to someone I don’t listen.
Is turning Nicky Campbell off on the radio because I can’t stand the sanctimonious git, passive aggressive?
If I block anyone on Twitter, Facebook or LinkedIn ( that’s all use) is because I’ve decided you are not worth my time. I do not need to explain my reasons.

I am waiting for threads to work properly in a browser, then I can see myself using that. Although I will still read tweets that interest me.

Threads, if it carries on will just be an echo chamber. There have been many alternatives to Twitter none have worked because they just become left or right echo chambers.
As flawed as it is, and despite his attempts to screw it up, Twitter is still the defacto town square.
