Given that it’s an ml community it would be blocked for me, too. That behavior is as I described. If you’ve seen any ml comments on this post that’s what I’m talking about. (by “change anything” I meant “relative to no blocklist”)
I have considered Piefed due to Lemmy’s origins, although being open source and relatively popular I’m confident its developers will be reasonably held in check (unlike with e.g. Tesseract).
To start, I’m not trying to have an argument about this.
So, I can say that, from what I can see, at least in that situation, piefed.social was blocking comments from a person who I didn’t specifically block as an individual, but was a member of an instance that I had blocked.
Your description doesn’t specify much about the origins of OP or the post. Was the community an “@lemmy.ml” community? If so I would expect it to be blocked. Was their account an “@lemmy.ml” account? If so I wouldn’t expect that to change anything.
I see a lot of content from ml users, but no posts to their communities, and I use the default Lemmy UI. I haven’t made a Piefed account before but ActivityPub (the federation protocol) is responsible for deciding what is and isn’t blocked based on your lists AFAIK so I wouldn’t expect any differences. That is to say, the included blocking features prevent the UI from receiving blocked posts, the UI shouldn’t be responsible for hiding them.
Tf did they do to Data’s eyes‽ He’s not supposed to look like a zombie!
Deciduous trees go out of their way to loose their leaves during winter. It’s good for them because their leaves don’t make enough energy in the darkness to justify the cost of keeping them alive.
Metaphors are cool, but this one doesn’t strike me as very realistic.
Blocking an instance just hides posts to communities from there. I have ml blocked but still see posts and comments by their users. I don’t know whether this is somehow magically different for everyone else since every discussion I’ve seen on the matter has at least one person claiming otherwise.
Hold on, don’t they know a cut cord can be soldered back together? You don’t even need image generators to fake breaking it…
It’s been a while until I thought about that one. Who WOULDN’T love being in continent?

You can set the default compatibility tool in Steam Settings:
There must be something to do about it… the ffmpeg quote “talk is cheap, send patches” comes to mind. That sort of reaction from the developers is pretty awful, they’re definitely begging for someone to do the work in their place.
They could be overworked? That’s a common affliction in open source, and from a few snippets I’ve read it seems that the kernel heavily prioritizes code proofreaders/mergers over code writers.
(came here to say this)
This looks great!
Bullet hell games are normally not my thing
It turns out genre doesn’t have to do with one’s preferences as much as the distribution of execution/planning/adaptation challenges:
As an extreme introvert, I actually entirely agree with OOP’s message. I didn’t interpret the implication that humans are social creatures as indicating that casual social interaction with strangers must be easy and enjoyable; rather, that it is beneficial and necessary.
I’d like to hear more about your take.
EDIT: It does irk me that they refer to it as “The AirPods Effect,” rather than “The Ear Buds Effect.”
Fun fact: there’s a group that shares this goal but was actually capable of doing it: https://www.scratch.mit.edu/
(TL;DR you can just let people explore coding in a simple language/engine and that’s enough of a stepping stone)
The source said “fucking”, not “f__king”.
Don’t have to censor tho [sic]
Content blockers fix this for me (uBlock Origin has a few “social widgets” filter lists)

A near miss and a disaster are worlds apart in terms of consequence, but very close in terms of what went wrong.
That sounds about right, thanks.
