Difference between block and filter? (lemm.ee)

If I block a community, just for example - say I wanted to block [email protected]. Would I use "filter" or "block?" I am having a hard time discerning the two.

I get that blocking something like lemmy.world would block the users comments and such as well.

This is actually a good question. If I had to guess, I would think it would be that filtering will prevent that community showing in your feed. Blocking it might also prevent notifications like comment replies or something like that.
