Say I see a post and I think “I definitely never want to see another post from this person, or in this community.” This is not limited to NSFW posts, as people can and will put NSFW content in posts not marked as such, possibly in communities they created specifically for their posts. With the current release, if I block a user, there is not enough time to also block the community before the post disappears from view.
I suggest this quick action be replaced by turning the thumbnail blurry or invisible, and the post would subsequently not load on refresh, but wouldn’t disappear from the current view.
Another scenario is I might choose to block a user and also report the post. But I want to stop seeing the objectionable content first… by blocking them. Ideally my ability to report would not be impacted by separating myself from the objectionable content by blocking.
Are these app-actionable or more like platform-based ideas? On a previous version I had time to take a 2nd action after blocking but now I don’t.

Perhaps the addition of a new feature to censor be satisfactory? It seems like a more granular options to block content can augment and coexist the current and immediate effect of blocking users or communities.
