How is it other people’s problem that you block a site that they’re on?

(Fwiw I have Twitter blocked too, though not for moral reasons)

Nobody's saying it's anybody else's problem - they're just looking forward to more content being on Mastodon (or elsewhwere) as people move away from X.
, in response to a thread sharing the Twitter profile of a key person mentioned in the article, who also comments here.

The subtext is clearly “jkb, please move to Mastodon cause I blocked Twitter”. Not spelling that out doesn’t make it a lot less weird IMO.

It's not that weird, you are reading too much into the subtext. The web is in a transitory state, platforms change, people move. Wishing for more content to be available on a specific platform without blaming the author is an acceptable comment in my view.
