What's the difference between block user/community and filter user/community? Why do we need filtering feature if we can block?

Blocking is done my lemmy server.

Filter is done by Sync for lemmy client. Filter is currently more flexibility.

Filtering is more flexible in some cases, but why should I filter a community instead of blocking it?

One a per Community bases I would block. End result is similar. Server vs sync client(profile).
