I just don’t want people accessing me if they’re cruel.

But are they if you don’t even know that they exist? Once muted a person is not there anymore. This is social media, not real life.
You can usually still see them interacting. Hard to forget them, when you see their reactions, zaps, reposts, etc.
And they mutes leak, occasionally.
That's a downside to posting things to the internet. Even the people you don't want to access it, can.
