We have the option to block posts by keyword, but communities have to be blocked explicitly by name. I'd like to be able to block all communities by keyword, or regex.

I have two use cases. The first is for communities that exist with the same name on many instances. The second is to be able block all the ".*meme.*" communities.

I would be happy to have groups of community maintained blocklist filters - one for memes, shitposts, politics, nsfw (or not nsfw), music/media, etc. Then we could subscribe to the blocklists and when a new community is created that offends just one person has to add it to the appropriate blocklist for everybody to benefit.
