Well, I deleted my account so that won't work. But that's crazy if that's true (not doubting you).
I said it as a joke but I suspect it might be true, too. I see a lot of people complaining that they see too many posts of people they block.
One common trick that I occasionally do for friends and pages I follow, and that seems to work, is to unfollow and re-follow.
Others suggest not using "bad" reactions like Angry and Sad on posts from accounts you want to keep seeing, and use Wow instead (that doesn't help given I follow some LGBTQIA+/feminist/leftist pages reporting the clusterfuck that is most of the world)
