So if I share a post and add a reply, and the OP blocks me, I just...can't see my own post anymore? It shows up if I go to the URL (which I only have from linking to someone) but nowhere on my profile or timeline.
Cool.
You must log in to comment.
in reply to @lori's post:
seems like an odd interaction yeah
i've finally made the time to actually unpack what's happened, read the guy's post, and... that's really what set people off? there was hardly anything to that post except a matter-of-fact retelling of the past few days, with everything all sourced?
calling it a "drama" post sure sticks in my craw a particular way
having seen their posts in the past (because i was linked in one), they are the most benign things possible
yep, this is a really fun one because -- have fun trying to delete what you can't see :)
when i nuked all of my posts originally i kept running into ones that would show up on my private but not on my main, and it turns out that, surprise, it was because the OP had blocked me at some point months later
similar things happen if you comment on a post by someone who later blocks you; you just can't interact with it, to delete it or otherwise. really cool
i had to use the dev console to manually forge requests to delete them, it was great. wonderful website
