I ignore without muting but I also kind of need to see everything to get a sense of how this machine is doing.

In general, beyond SN, I still don't feel the need to fix people in any overwhelming way, nor do I wish to be ignorant of the diversity of unkindness in the world, so I don't mute people. I also view haters like a kind of f'd up mirror where I might learn something unfortunate about myself from them.
