Will X be in violation of both app stores 🤔
X Looks To Remove Account Blocking Options in the App
Which is why both the App Store and Google Play Store require a blocking option, and it does seem like X’s attempts to water down and scale back blocking could be in violation of these parameters.

Sure looks like it will but will anything actually happen is the big question - both apple & google make money from in-app-subscritions from X - one to watch
that’s disgusting development.
Who among us here does not remember the great block button debacle of 2024 when the Google store try to ding counter.social for not shoving that feature in peoples faces enough!
😂 @ecksmc
Although the block thingy here was actually the report thingy
Google wanted the report feature front and centre the wee flag icon bottom of each post was added by J
The shenanigans is other SM sites don't need the report feature front and centre in X report feature has always been via users profiles just like CoSo has always been before google had a temper tantrum lol
oh! Lame!! @ecksmc
If certain people wanna get round blocks its not hard
Elon is just making it so his base and tweets from certain users will always be seen and pushed by the algorithm
He doesn't care that some block because of harassment issues he just cares that the small amount of "influencers" that are pushing his agenda get seen more
Anyone can bypass a block as is
