Blocking someone should make them unfollow you, so people can perform softblocks.

Blocking someone should make them unfollow you, so people can perform softblocks.

Either way, if i still follow somebody, they shouldn't disappear from my follow list.

Could we get confirmation from the team that this will be addressed reasonably soon, please?

This absolutely should be fixed so that there's a way to do it through the app, but in the meantime you can do it using this great tool:

Not sure if this is related:
I have unfollowed https://bsky.app/profile/gladlib.bsky.social but still see their posts in the OnlyPosts feed.
This has been going on for a while; following & unfollowing again does not fix it.

Guys I have added a fix and added a video I hope it is to your expectations.

Nice!

I'm surprised to see how scanty the E2E tests are, the profile flow only involves muting and not blocking. Maybe a team member can explain.

Is there a chance this could resolve the inability to unfollow people, potentially due to asynchronous issues like this: bluesky-social/atproto#3256 ?

Echoing this, experiencing the same issues and its infuriating to have hundreds of people (likely bots) that I cannot unfollow and are cluttering my feed.
