#Restore #follows / #followers. I accidentally blocked the #instance zirk.us (clicked the wrong button and the app had no security between, at least I didn't notice it.) At once, I clicked on "unblock instance" but got a message that I had blocked it. (I still can see it).
@ FediTips help seems to be too complicated for a Sunday morning: https://fedi.tips/help-ive-accidentally-blocked-a-server-on-mastodon-what-do-i-do-now/

I'm sorry, if it hit you, I'll work on it tomorrow. This is a real abyss of Mastodon. 🙄 No easier method?

They ought to have a much stronger warning message and a much easier undo process. If I recall correctly the warning about losing followers is mixed in with other info about the block so it's a bit too easy to miss.

For what it's worth, there's an open issue about this at https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/27361
