The block list on Furaffinity is a damn joke
a year ago
Yes Dragoneer, your block list, that HAS A MAXIMUM CAP SIZE, is a joke.
Just now tried to block someone who has some gross stuff, because I don't want to have any interaction with them, and I get a page that says this
Blocklist size exceeds limit. New entry was not added.
Blocklist can be manually edited on the Profile Info page.

Site hasn't really changed since I started using it, minus what I feel are a few downgrades. Though I think FA is the first site I've been on that has a maximum cap for the size of your blocklist, so 'good job' on doing that.

"Blocklist is a text field with a limit of 65535 characters. With the current blocklist implementation, you can't have a field that is larger than that in size.
Fur Affinity is not removing anything from the blocklist for you, it is simply truncating the size of the blocklist field to the maximum size of the data that it can store."
Sad that others need to make work-arounds though for the lack of planning on an official site, but what do you expect from social media/similar platforms.

The site has a ton of jank decisions from when it was first made that have never been changed or worked on
