Bluesky/twitter/etc are person centric - you follow the person

Lemmy/reddit/etc are topic centric - you follow a community

It makes sense for blocking on Bluesky to completely hide you, you've severed the person - person relationship.

On Lemmy severing a person - person relationship shouldn't disadvantage the user from interacting with the community. Communities don't want duplicate posts so if you post some big news in a popular community now all the users you've blocked would be cut off from that content. Their personal beef with you shouldn't disadvantage them in the communities this way.

This problem can be seen clearly on Reddit where blocking works this way, frequently abused by spammers and powerusers.
