Yes, timed mute is so useful, especially if you are biting your tongue not to reply to a person or thread where silence would be the best option, but you don't want to fully mute them forever.

One thing that people need to know about mute vs block... When you mute someone, they can still reply to you but you will not be notified or have it show up in your timeline. The content will still be there and visible to you and anyone else, just not in your timeline or generate a notificationFor that reason alone I prefer muting over blocking and will often mute Pluralistic's threads and go back and read them and hour later or his blog.

You can optionally allow notifications for mutes if you use the options menu (the same options that let you set a time period also have an option for allowing notifications).
