Interestingly, if you’re using web Twitter and click on the username somewhere in your stream and the person has Blocked you, you get the little pop-up snippet of their profile page, but if you were Following them when they blocked you, you still appear to be Following them the big blue Following button is on the pop-up, but not on the main profile page, so always go to the profile page to check.But other people COULD rt them and then they would show up in my stream I suspect this depends on how that rt’er is using Twitter: web Twitter, Hootsuite, Tweetdeck, or various other apps.

When I tried to Follow people who’d blocked me, I got a little “Sorry.Mind you, Twitter sometimes spontaneously unfollows you from people, so you should click to Follow them and… If I was Following them when they blocked me, the big blue FOLLOWING button changed to FOLLOW when I reloaded the page.So I asked for volunteers on Twitter and here’s what we found: I’m sorry, but Hootsuite just doesn’t do it for me.īut where was I?
