View submission: Announcing Blocking Updates
100% First of all I want to thank the admins for listening to user feedback. Users shouldn't have to see subs that they don't want to see period. I'm aware that you can block subs from appearing from r/all but that's not really good enough. Some subs have lost their original message/meaning and leaving them isn't enough to escape them.
I'm so glad that they made the block go both ways but I hope they make it so that users are still allowed to block a ton of people because, personally, I have quite a long list of blocked users. Most of them are blocked literally for the sole purpose of not seeing specific subs.
I just want to live in my little bubble and not bother or be bothered by other's in their little bubble. So I hope that they either allow users to mass block (not all at once) or block subs. Out of sight out of mind, am I right?

I mean... Kind of? This is a huge safety feature that allowed people to be stalked, and it's been brought up with the admins for years and years.
Just look at the r/mobileweb subreddit, which is supposed to be the *official* place to discuss (with the admins) any issues about using reddit on a mobile browser.
The top post on the subreddit was an ejaculating penis. It stayed there for well over half a year.

The thought of never having to see a rehashed, 12 year old "meme" template on adviceanimals sounds so good.

I'm genuinely curious: how do you encounter a sub if you've not subscribed and also blocked them from /r/all? Random cross posts in comments?
