Also known as Kebab Menu. The three dots “drop-down” menu on the top RH of the screen. Sometimes three stacking vertical lines elsewhere, hence the name.
- Hiding or Blocking a Subreddit in r/all
Currently, you can’t easily hide a sub in r/all. There’s some useful information here[1] but these options only work for desktop users of Reddit, not the official mobile app. If you use Reddit on the desktop site, then you can filter a sub from r/all by going to Old Reddit[2]. Enter the unwanted sub name in the 'filter subreddit' section on the sidebar. There is no filter for r/popular.

Users who don't find r/all and r/popular to their tastes are probably better off creating a list of their own preferred subs and browsing "Home" instead. Reddit are working on a filtering system, but this is taking time. *See Also:* “Does *subreddit* contain profanity?", Home Feed, Useful Links, Resources and Subreddits: Special Note[3].

- History
An option on your Profile Menu. You can sort your recent Reddit history by Recent, Upvoted, Downvoted or Hidden.
- Hivemind
A collective term used disparagingly, also known as the Reddit Hivemind or Great Reddit Hivemind (GRH). The opinion of the majority of people on Reddit is often aligned, and for the outlier, this often seems like a “Hivemind” in action. Things often happen on Reddit that are inexplicable and therefore attributed to the Hivemind, such as mass downvoting. Sometimes a post will get a downvote and for no other apparent reason than the ‘bandwagon effect’ others will downvote it too until it gains negative traction and is r/DownvotedToOblivion. ~~“Hivemind” is nearly always used in derogatory terms.~~ *The hivemind is always right, the hivemind is infallible. Your opinion will conform to the hivemind or you will be found wanting. You will not dissent from the hivemind.* *See Also:* Comment Chain, One-word Replies, Snowclone, Spambots: Special Note[4].

- Home Feed
A list of the subreddits you have joined. Once you start to join subreddits, their posts will appear on your home page. There are various ways of sorting these (Best, Hot, Top, New, Rising) from a menu at the top of the page. Click "+Join" to add a sub to your Home feed. You should also be able to see them in http://www.reddit.com/subreddits/mine[5]. *See Also:* Communities, Sort.
