You blocked 50k people? Don't you have to block people one by one? How did you even do this?

People used to superblock via "apps" e.g. block this person and all those that follow this person, block everyone in this thread, etc.
There were API endpoints that worked at some point, made it easy to do.
You could upload blocklists.
Sounds like people weren’t content with how bubble it was and needed extra double bubble.
blocking anyone who pays for the premium subscription contiunes to be a solid enough heuristic
But you still can’t block them with lists.
