lukus black (ID: 000000a54de5bbd0) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 06/15/2022 It works great for me. I torture myself with r/all/new, and with a click I never have to see a sub again.

Михаил Мальчиков (ID: 000000d4e786fabe) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 03/23/2022 It really does nothing. However idea is brilliant and I'd like to see it implemented on Reddit itself. I damn hate subreddit r/popping, it is absolutely disgusting. Still appears often on main page.

batuhan dogru (ID: 0000001a911db490) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 03/14/2022 ok this does work but oh boy those little x and + are so small and there is no way someone can see them without actualy checking those 2 png's you uploaded on the app download page which are very small by the way i'd make them a bit bigger. Clicking on the extensions icon should give us ability the just type on the r/..... to block the aswell and some other things other than clicking that very small + on the top right. i know that you might have thought making them very small doesnt make it anoying and less noticible but avarage user has no idea how to use this.
