I have a lot of communities blocked. Sometimes when I would block, they wouldn't get blocked, so I'd have to block again. I assume it could be just server temporarily blacking out, but I was wondering if it could be actually related to the community blocks I have. I don't use any apps, just the browser version with the blocks being saved into my account.

I'm asking, because I noticed .ml going down lately and my block list has only grown. I feel like it's a very far reach to think the block list of a user could be responsible, but I assume other people also block (although I assume far, far less) and depending on how it's processed, maybe it could actually play a part?

I cannot live without the blocks, so please don't take them away. I'll appreciate if someone could clarify if it's programmed in a way which could be affecting the server itself.
