What’s the most appropriate way of muting people?

A. Simply mute them

B. Get the last word in, tell them they are going to be muted and then mute them

C. Tell them you’re going to mute them, but don’t even bother spending the energy to hit mute

I think there is no wrong way ... and for me it depends on the situation if they're in my replies consistently being annoying i will let them know ... otherwise i just quietly mute or unfollow

I write the word muted after muting them. But it's probably better not to even mention it.

Tell them you love them and how did they get so smart etc - then mute. 😉 Thanks!

B simply because they are less likely to continue interacting with you

When you mute them, its like they don’t even exist. Out of sight, out of mind. 🧡👊🏻😎

A. Just so much simpler.

> Get the last word in, tell them they are going to be muted and then mute them This is by far one of the lamest things you can do on social media (Nostr included). It's the Internet equivalent of plugging your ears while screaming things so you can't hear the response. If you are interested enoug...

I usually tend somewhere between C and B. I would defnitly mention that I mute, when a certain behaviour goes on. But it is mostly users, that are not trying to explain and harrass others for no benefit to the conversation.

I've done all three. Usually not the second one, that gives them too much power hah

There is a fourth option: build a bot that automatically responds only with a target list to fill its inbox with misleading, mindless misinformation.
