I have to be honest: I have received more abuse here than I ever did on Twitter, and it's getting increasingly common, which goes to prove what I said a few years ago: it's not the platform, it's the people.

@josemanuel abuse from which side if I may ask? blocking the offenders or their instance did not help?

@kaia They usually block me first. It's usually the kind of people who, when faced with polite disagreement, reply with an insult, then block and subtoot.

In the rare cases when they don't block me, I usually mute them (with or without mentions, depending on how annoying they are).
