Xander W (ID: 000000e553ef81e6) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 11/02/2023 By default, it should *not* block any followed Bluecheck accounts. Some are legitimate and I would like the ones that I follow to be exempted. This seems like a gross oversight.

Peter Falkingham (ID: 000000d75fccba24) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 09/04/2023 Works exactly as you'd hope. Twitter is so much better with this!
