    My block list grew slower once Voyager implemented user tagging. Most of what gets blocked now is porn stuff. I don’t mind it existing (and have an account just for that), but there’s certain stuff that just isn’t my bag, baby.

      I didn’t know about tagging until just now. How do you use it? Do you tag profiles so you ignore them instead of blocking?

        Long press a username and select edit tag:

        Hopefully I captured both the rage and panda lol.

        And yeah, I’ll tag people as trolls/agitators, bigots, headline bots (even if there’s a real person behind the account), [insert political label here], etc. I’ll still block if I feel the need to, but a nice yellow and black “warning” tag lets me know to just not engage, and why.

        Edit: you may need to go into settings -> user tags and enable them first.

          Haha I think you got it 😂 that’s a good idea. I normally don’t pay too much attention to users, but I should start doing that

        I figure you are asking about Voyager, but for any Thunder users reading this thread: longpress a comment > user > add user label

          It’s pretty new within past few months, and opt in. So don’t feel too bad

            My grandpa ass (not really old, I just play an old on TV) just figured out how they work and holy shit. What a great feature!
