+On self-managed GitLab, by default this feature is available.

GitLab administrators can ban and unban users. Banned users are blocked, and their issues are hidden.
The banned user's comments are still displayed. Hiding a banned user's comments is [tracked in this issue](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/327356).
