Kind of like the trending communities bot, but it gives data based on the MOST BLOCKED communities.

We see what people obviously like, but wouldn't it help to see also what people dont want or like?

People can do a side by side if they really want to as well.

I'm thinking about doing it but I don't know how to gather all that data and I can't make the community where it relies on users posting what they blocked, because that's kind of asking them to do 'work' in a sense.

And that's no fun so idk thoughts ?

I don't love it as an idea. Most of the communities I block aren't anything bad or even annoying โ€” I just tend to scroll by All and block things that don't apply to me, like communities about countries whose language I don't speak, or porn communities for preferences I don't share.

I think if you set something like this up, even with good intentions, it would result in negative connotations being associated to communities that probably don't deserve it.
