And I'm the opposite. When I block someone, it's because I'm sick and tired of that one person in particular and never want anything to do with them ever again. And for my own protection, I don't want them to be able to see me or interact with my comments ever again, regardless of whether I'll see that interaction or not.

Same, the main thing I'm getting at is, most of the time it's not like that

Yeah, my personal experience is the opposite where I find myself having to outright block people because I generally don't have an issue until outright blocking them is needed.

It would be great to have a "mute post/thread/comment" option that just stops any reply notifications for that specific item of yours. That way you don't have to select specific people to mute/block and it doesn't affect anything outside of that one specific comment of yours.
