unblock
Let flow again
To unblock is to remove an obstruction or barrier.
You might unblock a drain, unblock a path, or unblock a creative impasse.
On social media and messaging platforms, to unblock someone is to reverse a previous block, restoring their ability to contact you or see your content: I finally unblocked my ex.
