Was just presented with incest and an incest community browsing /new. I went to block it and was suprised to find I can't not see incest without going into the incest community to 'block community.' Is there somewhere I can feature request this or do I need to change clients? I'm on the default one. Thx

The API allows blocking communities without ever interacting with them. It's just the limitation of the client you use.

Yup totally get it, was expecting that functionality in the default client though

There isn't a Lemmy equivalent of RES (extension that made Reddit significantly less shit) is there?

The non-app regular ol web experience of Lemmy is definitely lacking.

Just try out other frontends, I guess. I use photon for my instance.
