Better tools for managing blocked users
GitHub has improved the blocked users management interface for personal accounts and organizations, adding search by username, full name, or email along with sorting and pagination capabilities for easier list navigation.
Managing blocked users is now faster and clearer for personal accounts and organizations. With this update, you can:
- Search by username, full name, or email.
- Sort and paginate long lists.
- Filter by block reason (e.g., Spam, Misconduct, or Harassment).
- Add private notes to preserve moderation context.
- View and edit block settings.
- See who applied an organization block and when it expires.
The updated experience also clearly separates searching the blocked-user list from blocking a new user, helping you find cases faster and avoid accidental blocks.
To get started, go to Settings → Moderation → Blocked users for your personal account or Organization settings → Moderation → Blocked users for an organization you administer.
