I realize this might be a huge/impossible ask, but I figured I’d try anyway. I would like to be able to see comments posted in communities that I have blocked if I click on someone’s profile. Especially if I click on my profile. I know they right now blocking is done through Lemmy and it’s probably a lot of work to go through and change that, but I really wish it behaved like Apollo did with Reddit. When you blocked a subreddit it wouldn’t show up in your /r/all feed but you could still click on someone’s profile and see posts and comments that they made in those subs. I really liked that and wish there was a way to make that happen here. I just made a comment in a community and then blocked it, but I still want to be able to see replies to it and check how many upvotes/downvotes it received. Any chance of making this happen in Voyager?

    Pretty sure this is something done on the server side. Voyager just returns the response from the server, which filters out blocked communities.

      Yes, I’m aware, which is why I said it would be a lot of work to change it.

        If you want to see this change, you should probably petition the Lemmy devs!

          Maybe so. I do know the main dev of Voyager is pretty active here and open to suggestions for how to make this app better, so I figured I would start here. I have absolutely no idea how receptive to changes the devs of Lemmy are.

            Fair. I personally haven’t seen much community interaction from the Lemmy devs, but I wouldn’t know where to look for it. Frontend app devs do seem more social.
