I'd rather have a "Would you like to hide all Sports related Content?" button than a "Would you like to hide all NSFW content?" button

I started blocking like a madman and my experience improved considerably

Same - my blocklist is gigantic now, but by combining that with subscriptions means that I can always choose between a very tightly curated list of stuff that interests me and nothing else (browsing subscribed) and a much bigger list of more random stuff that lets me discover new things but still doesn't have sports, cars, porn and other things in actively disinterested in (browsing all). I like this system a lot.

I just do what I did with reddit and only browse all whenever I get REALLY bored.

How do you do that? I cant figure it out. If i see one nore fuck cars post in gonna lose my shit

On the basic mobile website, you go to the sub... community you want to block or even just the comments for a post, expand the side bar button at the top, then hit Block Community.

For example, on this post, I go into these comments, hit Sidebar at the top of the comments, then block community.
