It needs to be easier to block those communities.
I hate having to tap into a community in order to block it. If I don’t wanna see that shit, I definitely don’t want to have to see MORE of it in order to block it.
We should be able to long press on a post or community name from the main feed, and be able to block the community from that popup menu.
I was literally coming to suggest this.
Please, please, please add this as a feature. I am getting an insane amount of porn and I’m actually wondering if it’s a byproduct of me having to open that community to block it…? The worst part of having to open the community page is that whilst the pictures in the threads are blurred, the community icon isn’t, and they are often NSFW also.
Like OP, I like to stay on all at the minute because I want to find new communities. It feels like blocking porn and sport communities has become a part-time job (mostly porn). No qualms about sport, it’s annoying but I’ll plod on, there’s a finite amount of teams in the world lol. The porn however is limitless…
As an aside, is there a limit to the amount of communities we can block?
I wonder if blocklists could become a thing to solve this
I think one of the bigger problems with the fediverse is that theres no way to mass filter content.
By default/main language would be a big one, porn second.
Language filtering would be damn helpful
Yup, another chunk of my blocked communities are foreign language ones.
