Why can't we block/subscribe from the hamburger menu on the post?
You literally can!
If you are in a thread, just click on the kebab (hehe, I like that) under the post? You don't have to go anywhere if you mis-tap into the thread. I guess I don't think of it as an ordeal - I either just ignore the community, or I block it with just a couple of taps.
