Why do I keep getting posts from someone who I've had on Full Ignore for about 5 days?

How much time before it takes effect?

Thanks!

That's what I thought. Any idea what the problem could be? TheRickles Jan 2023 #2

I do think you still see them if they make the Greatest Page? Skittles Jan 2023 #3

My experience is if they make it to the Trending Now section on the first page Gaugamela Jan 2023 #4

Yes, I think that's what's happening to me. The posts in question are pretty popular. TheRickles Jan 2023 #7

I find that my blocks work on latest threads but not DU home. usonian Jan 2023 #5

Yes, it's a DU Home Page issue. Oh well... TheRickles Jan 2023 #9

I wish that could be changed Lulu KC Jun 2023 #10

When I go to My Account and open the Ignore List, it shows Full Ignore for the poster in question. But I still keep getting the posts...

they will show up regardless of whether you have them on ignore. Otherwise they’re hidden.

They make it to Trending Now, so I guess I'll have to grin and bear it.

Thanks, all, for your feedback.

If I clip my nose against the stench, I visit the home page.

Otherwise, it's mental health filtering.

After the latest M****** G****** affaire du merde, that block list is going to grow.
NOTHING about it is right.
