i regularly browse the all feed to find new interesting content. however there's a whole lot of small communities being advertised that are just not applicable to me. could there be a quick way to block those? i.e. without having to open the community -> "block community", since opening the community in the first place takes maybe 5 seconds depending on how fast the network is.

ideally i'd like a quick block button next to the three-dots-menu. (maybe this button is only visible when browsing the all feed? but not when browsing the subscribed feed.) something like this:

when pressing it, it asks you something like this:

and just pressing Enter key confirms it.

then how do you find new stuff?

Like others say, and then all is always still there. I just switch to it once in a while, like if I burned through my whole feed. Usually a couple new communities to sub to, then switch back.

I've found some communities through cross-posts, or when you like a post you could check out the other communities they're active in

As little as possible. For me, less content to scroll through is a feature, not a bug.
