> If sharing blocklists is an effective way for likeminded people to create a shared experience on a platform that they prefer to have, it seems like a course of action with very few downsides.

It encourages shallow mindedness, ignorance and echo chambers - where you only hear only ever what you want to hear. It literally 'Fox News's Twitter.

Surely, it's great for the bottom line of the company; people hate to be told they're wrong, even when they absolutely are. It's honestly this kind of thinking though that's lead to the strong polarization of the country.

I'd much rather have people yelling at me non-stop that I'm wrong, and take the time to rationally consider their positions. I'm assuredly in the minority.

Are blocklists good for Twitters bottom line? Undoubtably. Is it good for the overall health of society, never having to hear that you're wrong? No way.
