I blocked hexbear a long time ago, on my mtgzone and .world accounts, and recently I've seen posts from there on those accounts as if I hadn't.

Unsure if this is an app issue or platform issue. Are there caps to the size of block lists? I don't see a count for instance blocks, but I've blocked over 1000 communities.

On 397

Say I see a post and I think "I definitely never want to see another post from this person, or in this community." This is not limited to NSFW posts, as people can and will put NSFW content in posts not marked as such, possibly in communities they created specifically for their posts. With the current release, if I block a user, there is not enough time to also block the community before the post disappears from view.

I suggest this quick action be replaced by turning the thumbnail blurry or invisible, and the post would subsequently not load on refresh, but wouldn't disappear from the current view.

Another scenario is I might choose to block a user and also report the post. But I want to stop seeing the objectionable content first... by blocking them. Ideally my ability to report would not be impacted by separating myself from the objectionable content by blocking.

Are these app-actionable or more like platform-based ideas? On a previous version I had time to take a 2nd action after blocking but now I don't.

Used to be, I could open the profile select screen, and it would show me the number of notifications each profile had, off to the side. This was great for just loading profiles with notifications to check on them. But now none of them show numbers, even with notifications existing out of sight.

Right now, youtube has its own preference option, for method of opening. Could we expand this to allow users to input domains and select an opening method for them?

Generally, I want to open videos in app and articles in browser. I don't know if there's a better way to achieve this than giving users an option per domain, with custom domain input, but I'm open to other methods.

Say I start typing a comment, then decide to not bother. Instinctively I delete what I had typed, then press back. The UI asks me for confirmation to leave even though the field is blank. It should just go without confirmation if the field is blank.

I suspect it does this because it has a draft saved, but the current contents of the text box should take priority over a draft.

Subject line pretty much covers it. Say I get a hateful comment reply from user xyz, so I block them. I go back to my profile, even after refreshing, to look at my other replies, and xyz is still visible there.

I should be able to be done with hateful people/comments.

I've got 3 profiles. I switch between them fairly often to see different kinds of content (this is the only one that can see this community, for example). I noticed that when I switch, there's a chunk of time where the app doesn't have any of my profiles' block lists applied. So if there's a person I have blocked from each profile, spamming something inappropriate, I will see their posts if I refresh during this window of time.

I don't know if there's an elegant solution to this. Maybe whenever profiles are changed, the app could first revert back to Top Six Hour sorting, to avoid super recent low-upvote posts?

That still leaves open the possibility of scrolling down to the spam, though. The app would need to apply the user's block list mid-scrolling to prevent it. Is that possible?

I've got some comments I'd like to delete, but due to them being in threads that were deleted, I am unable to remove them from my profile. Clicking on them in my profile (which is necessary to delete comments) leads to an error screen since the thread doesn't exist anymore.

Could we put a menu on comments in the profile page to delete without going to the thread?

For the curious, the comments are nothing inflammatory or inappropriate, but they remind me of the inflammatory or inappropriate threads they were in, and I'd like to move on.

I see a couple hundred of these messages every day:

• Post hidden
• Refreshed
• Blocked user
• Blocked community
• Downvotes are disabled

These are good things to know, but if there's no way to make the snackbars disappear automatically after 1-3 seconds, can we PLEASE have an option to disable them?

If it were easy to manually swipe them away, maybe I could deal, but the proportion of the screen that works to dismiss them is comically small. I'm writing this whole post with a Refreshed snackbar just casually hanging out on my screen. I know trying to dismiss it would 99% likely back me out of this post form instead.

Seems like sort by date is the only sorting method at the moment.
