Mute/block controls

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. A clear and concise description of what the problem is. Ex. I'm always frustrated when [...]

I am a heavy user of both block and mute functionality. This is on the hashtag, but as well as keywords (no hashtags).

Admittedly, I’m pretty new to the application, so there might be an easier way… But to accomplish a mute or block, it seems to be a multistep process.

Describe the solution you'd like A clear and concise description of what you want to happen.

what I would love to be able to do is long press on either a hashtag, or a single word, even multi word selection. Then have a contextual menu pop-up that allows block or mute. There would need to be some options around the duration for the mute component. Two hours, six hours, one day, one week, one month, forever.

What I would also like to see is a way to set a default action for these mute parameters. That way in as minimal clicks as possible, you can mute or block. But also have options if it is a temporary thing.

the real goal is, how fast can I get a mute or block done with as few clicks as possible. And not having to set parameters every single time.

Describe alternatives you've considered A clear and concise description of any alternative solutions or features you've considered.

to be honest, the Mastodon client that is currently my primary does a certain subset of this. However, I am really enjoying your client, and would probably switch full-time if I had this feature. And I only say that simply because it’s probably one of my most common tasks.

Additional context Add any other context or screenshots about the feature request here.

this is a screenshot from my previous app. The one thing I don’t like is how the mute features require a sub menu. But is also not the end of the world.

I’m really enjoying the client so far!

Thanks for this thorough request!

I think I see what you want:

• we have long-press actions in Mammoth for Mute 1 Day, Mute Forever and Block already in the Following feed in Mammoth. See attached
• but if you want to mute or block a person whose posts you are seeing because you subscribe to a certain hashtag, you have to go to their profile

Will file a ticket on this and we'll let you know if/when we add this feature.

If I am correct, is your screenshot for the user level?

I'm not looking to mute or block a specific user but hashtags, keywords, and phrases.

For example, if I was on a particular toot, I sought a shortcut to mute some of the hashtags. Or to select a word, or even a couple of words, and mute them specifically.

For example, this screenshot is from your application. I had long pressed one of the hashtags, and the idea is that mute options would appear here. The other idea is that the same would happen if I selected a single word, or even multiple words, essentially long press either scenario and obtain the mute options.

And include the original default settings that I described in the original post.
