Click logo, miss logo enter thread by mistake, click logo again enter community page, scroll right, click block, confirm block at the bottom of the page.

Why can't we block/subscribe from the hamburger menu on the post? Is it this difficult on purpose? Can we edit out a few of those actions? Blocking communities is a huge part of my lemmy experience.

I feel like it was much easier on sync for Reddit. I find I'm blocking a lot more communities than subs, mainly because Lemmy is so slow moving that I have to sort by new to not see the same posts from 4 days ago if I try any other sort.

I set everything on top 12H to avoid that problem. My subscibtions on Hot and my local community on new. This way I get a pretty solid experience. And I don't really have the feeling I see old posts.
