Mutes are arguably funnier than blocks. when muting someone, you wouldn’t see any of their posts or replies, but they can see your posts.
It’s like you’re shadow banning them from your own app experience lol 

X (formerly Twitter)
Elon Musk (@elonmusk) on X
@WatcherGuru You will still be able to mute accounts and block users for DMs
Looks like Twitter is switching over to the Nostr style mute vs block system

Have you seen these dehumidifiers? Stop using them or you might die.

Finally! Platform screen doors should be installed at every
existing subway station where it's possible, and should be standard for
every new station built.
They prevent people
from being shoved/jumping onto the tracks, prevent trash from being
thrown onto the tracks and starting fires, and allow ventilation/climate
control for the platforms so all that brake dust doesn't flow towards
where people are standing.

MTA set to install protective platform doors at select subway stations in ‘coming months’
The protective barriers are part of a pilot program meant to stop riders from falling — or being pushed — onto the train tracks.
