Oo nice, didn't know that PR was coming. Yes of course I will add that as soon as I can! :)
I've been trying to avoid filtering posts out on the client-side in Alexandrite because the less content I can show you the more content I have to ask the server for, but I might come up with a middle-ground to allow me to add extra stuff like this by just showing a smaller "blocked post from xyz" in the feed. Unsure exactly what I'd do but I'm still thinking about it. Having that supported on Lemmy's backend is the more complete solution so I'm excited for that PR.
Yeah, I'm really excited for backend support for that feature instead of clients having to block individually as well!
I suppose that still leaves keyword blocking. Most other clients seem to already have added that as a client-side feature, but I agree that it doesn't seem right to have it per-client instead of shared via the lemmy backend. Looks like there's a feature request open for it, so might make sense to wait till the lemmy devs weigh in on that.
It would be awesome to be able to block posts by keywords in settings. Additionally, after 3869 merges, it would be amazing to be able to block instances from the feed as well.
Thanks!
