[Feature Request] the ability to block someone with a single button on their tweet #588

This is just a small quality of life change but it would be nice if there's a way to block people quickly as you go through the comment. Ever since Musk took over, there has been a massive influx of chuds and fascists in the comments (a lot of them don't have blue checks), so if one can just block as they go through stuff, it'd be very helpful!

Thank you in advance

Any suggestions on where to put this? Unfortunately adding new buttons to the action bar tends to break other extensions in sometimes unexpected ways (including this one), and other things people use to customise Twitter.

Would this be everywhere, or just when viewing comments under focused Tweets? Should it be on everyone, or selectively? Presumably people don't want a block button on the people in their Following timeline all the time, or on people they already follow when viewed elsewhere.

How about on the same line as their name? That way they can check if they're following the person too. And you can enable/disable this button in the menu if you don't wanna misclick. And I think mostly the comments and hidden replies is where it's most useful.
