A number of different social media platforms have a range of block options, including a mute button, which allows you to avoid seeing posts or notifications for a certain user, without fully blocking them.
Snapchat also has a couple of options when it comes to muting people on the platform, which you may want to do if there’s a particular user you want to avoid, or if the app is getting too cluttered.
If there’s a user you want to mute on Snapchat, here’s how to do it.
