What is the difference between mute and block?

Upd: it looks like clarification from Ruben is needed :)

I could be wrong but I believe you can still access muted communities via search but they don't show up in your feed; while blocked communities don't come up at all.

Hm... Could be. Do I understand correctly that "mute" works in boost only? I mean this is a client side feature?

yes, same as filter in sync

block on the other end is synchronized between all clients, because that info is stored on your instance
