Like the title says, I accidentally blocked someone. I tapped the three dots under someone’s post and then accidentally tapped again as “block user” fell under my thumb. This user doesn’t seem like someone I want to block, so I would like to unblock them. I found the “blocklist” under my profile, which says it lists blocked instances, communities and users; but (while I haven’t blocked any instances), I only see communities. That said, it’s not allowing me to scroll through the blocked list, so possibly the blocked user is lower in the list. If I navigate to the user in question, I see how to block them again, but no option to unblock them.

How do I find a blocked user and how do I unblock them? Thanks in advance.

    Thank you for continuing to try.

    I don’t, but I haven’t blocked anyone else. Maybe one of the times I tapped “block user” it was actually “unblock” ever if the menu didn’t adjust.

    If I browse to the user, it works, but I’m not sure if that indicates whether they’re blocked.

    Thanks again.

      The only thing you can do with blocked users is unblock them. It doesn’t even say unblock; you just click the username and it unblocks them. And yes, the blocked users list is the bottom of the three.
