===Add/remove from lists===
===Add/remove from lists===
Here you can add the profile you're looking at directly to a list or to lists or remove them.


===Mute===
===Mute===
Muting a user means toots by them and toots mentioning them will be hidden, but they can still see your toots and follow you.<br>
You can select whether you still get notifications when the user interacts with you as well as how long the mute should last.


===Block===
===Block===
Blocking a user hides their toots and toots mentioning them as well as blocks the user from seeing and interacting with you and your toots.


===Report===
===Report===
Reporting a user sends a report to your instance admin and - if you so choose - also to the admin of the instance the user is on.<br>
You can select posts by the user to include in the report and write a bit about why you are reporting them.


===Block domain===
===Block domain===
This blocks not just the user, but the whole instance the user is on. This is e.g. used to fight spam, trolling and harassment by a whole instance.<br>
When you block an instance its usually a good idea to also send a report or a direct message to your instance admin, so they can choose whether to block the domain for everybody on your instance.
