I mute annoying posters (the frequent users who already have >5k posts tend to be uninteresting to me and obviously show up more often in feeds), that makes sense to me.

How goes my experience improve if I block a bot that follows me? Follower bots is a platform problem

I think it's mostly the same motivation as blocking assholes, partly "I don't want to be part of your attempt to game the algorithm" and partly "I don't want to see this".
