Whyblocked allows you to store the reason why you blocked someone, along with “receipts”, URLs to the posts that led you to block them.
It has a Qt-interface and uses an SQLite-database.
Run whyblocked. You can also start it from the menu of your desktop
environment.
Every release includes
a .deb-package, an .rpm-package and a .tar.gz-package with precompiled binaries
for x86_64(amd64)
(more info).
These are automatically built and not tested. You can install them with
apt install ./whyblocked*.deb or yum install ./whyblocked*.rpm,
respectively. The packages are signed with the PGP key
242E5AC4DA587BF9
(Fingerprint: F730 1ADF C9ED 2624 48C4 2B64 242E 5AC4 DA58 7BF9).
