Im nt sure i understand. Blocking them the normal way doesnt work?
The only way I know how to block someone is to find a toot that they did somewhere in a feed on qoto (local, home, federated), and then open that toot in the web by clicking "Open in web" to get the 3-dot ellipsis icon to show up, and then click on that ellipsis icon to popup a selection to mute, block, etc. If the user I want to block doesn't have a toot that I can get to easily, e.g., if the offending toot was in the federated feed and it's too old to find, then I can't block them.
That's the only way I know how to do it.
For example, how would I block those two users I cited above? They have no toots I can find on the qoto site.
(I don't want to go to some other instance's website to do it because I have no idea what that other site might do.)

Type the full user name in the search bar on qotos web interface. Click the user, thist will show their profile inside qotos web ui. Click the three dots on their profile and choose the option to block.

Ok, thanks. What about the blocking question?
Is there a way to block a user on another instance from the qoto site without finding a toot of theirs somewhere in a qoto-supplied feed? Like just entering the @user@site.tld into a field on a form.
