Hi. As I am new on Lemmy I wonder, how I can block communities where I am not are interested in. At the moment, I switch to my user menue, switch to Preferences and to Blockings. There I enter the name of the respective community. But I assume there could be a shorter way for blocking a community directly from my timeline, if I do not want to have its posts in my timeline. Is there such a button vice versa to the Follow/Subscribe button or is it not?

Its easier to block communities on the lemmur app for android, click on post, click on the three dots and block.

That is how you block communities yes. The next update also has a button to block them from the community page itself.
