How does that make it "effectively useless"? That was the most useless and nonsensical part of the block feature. Blocking is about you not seeing their posts (including them not being able to reply to you), not the other way around.
Yeah, I don't get it either, everybody seems to think that this change makes it impossible to hide posts from blocked users. But this just gets rid of the weird quirk where if you called JK Rowling a terfy ghoul and she blocked you, you had to log out to hate-watch her shitty tweets.
Joke's on them, I never had an account in the first place.
Now it makes sense, from the headline I also understood that blocking basically does nothing now lol
Adding a layer of invisibility makes it more of a hassle for them to react to the content in some way (e.g. sick their followers on you).
