Is it better to mute or block on twitter?
Simply put, muting someone on Twitter is like a more polite version of blocking them. Same like blocking, they will not be notified that you did it.

Do muted accounts see my tweets?
Muted users are not notified about the mute and have no way to see they are muted. You don't see a muted user's Tweets in your timeline but you still receive notifications if they mention or DM you. A muted user can still like, reply to and Retweet your Tweets.
Can you hide tweets from a follower?
Twitter doesn't provide such a feature, so you can't hide certain tweets from your followers. If you don't want to share a tweet with specific people, you should not share it on Twitter or you can block people that you don't want to share the tweet with them.
Can I stop someone from seeing my tweets without blocking them?
If you follow the user you block, using the “Block” feature causes your account to unfollow the user. If you prefer to prevent certain people from seeing your tweets without unfollowing them, enable the Protect My Tweets feature to make your tweets private.
Can you soft block on twitter?
You can soft block a user on Twitter by blocking and then unblocking them to remove them as a follower. The advantage of a soft block is that it's not obvious to the other person they've been blocked. The disadvantage of soft blocking is it's not permanent; the other person can follow you again.
Who has me blocked on twitter?
