Hopefully I’m just doing something wrong but I still see comments from users I have blocked on Voyager. Is this a known bug?

    If you go to your blocks on your settings page in the web U (not in Voyager), are the blocked people listed in the table down near the bottom? I took a quick look through the /post/list endpoint in the PieFed api and it looks like we are filtering blocked users correctly, so I wonder if the issue is that user blocks are not getting created correctly.

      Thanks for the response!

      I can confirm the blocked users are present in my piefed settings.

      For testing, I blocked a user on Voyager - and verified that user appeared in Voyager’s block list. Then I verified they appeared in Piefed block list - they did. I restarted the Voyager app, forced a reload, then opened the post I blocked this test user from and I can still see their comment.

      When I open this post on Piefed directly, I cannot see their comment as expected.

        Ah, I see now. I had missed that this was for comments and not posts. I think I can see the bug in the PieFed API. The /comment/list endpoint is fairly complicated due to the way replies can be nested with different hierarchies, and I think it looks like it might not be filtering blocked users at a specific point. I opened an issue in the PieFed repo to keep track of this.
