JAKARTA - It turns out that there is a simple tool that will help you block everyone who likes bad tweets instantly. If someone posts something offensive on Twitter and you're surprised how many people are starting to like the tweet, it's upsetting. Some people may even share the tweet with their friends or followers, thereby making the post go viral.

The first reaction to seeing such a tweet is to block the tweeter. But what about those who support it with their likes?

Blocking someone from your feed can feel like an extreme measure, but if you want your timeline to be free of this kind of content, you may want to block everyone who likes the tweet.

Stages in using Megablock.

You can report offensive posts and accounts on Twitter. But this does not mean that you are free to interact with the people who support the content. Luckily, there are third-party tools you can use to block everyone who likes the tweet.

Megablock is a tool that allows you to mute a tweet, as well as block its creator and everyone who likes it in one click. Its creation was inspired by a tweet from Twitter user, Mike Solana. He tweeted:

i want a feature called megablock that blocks a bad tweet, the bad tweet's author, and every single person who liked the bad tweet, then sounds a brief alarm and makes your phone vibrate

Megablock saves you the trouble of logging into each account and blocking them separately.

Here's how to use the tool:

1. Visit Megablock.xyz.

2. Tap Start.

3. Sign in with your Twitter details and tap Next Step.

4. Paste the URL of the tweet you want to block in the text box and click MegaBlock!

5. Confirm that you want to block the tweet by typing the text shown in the text box.

Megablock starts there. It only took a few seconds for the tool to block tweets and everyone who liked them.

Blocking everyone who likes offensive tweets, no doubt, can help keep your feed free of bad tweets. But is it really worth it?

You probably already know that not all users who like tweets support the opinions expressed in them. Blocking everyone who likes the tweet also means that you will block users who may only like the tweet for reference purposes. Which is not always what you want.

All in all, you now have a tool you can use to remove truly offensive tweets and their authors. Tweeters will also be blocked, but sometimes keeping your feed free of abusive content is worth the added cost.
