    How do u do this on sync? There is several annoying bots i want to block but clicking the name of the bot doesn't do anything.

    3 dot menu on the post, then click on the user in the menu. That will take you to their profile so you can block them. Also, I believe clicking on the user/community name is a toggleable option in sync.

    You mean Sync doesn't let you block users from the post itself? The default mobile UI does that. It's there on comments too.

    Also, I believe clicking on the user/community name is a toggleable option in sync.

    Why on earth isn't that the default?

    Why on earth isn't that the default?

    Because it's a reddit app retrofitted to work for lemmy, and because some people want to click anywhere on a post and be brought to it instead of a user's profile or the community it was posted in.

    On a post in the feed, hit the three dot button and filter out that user/community or instance. If you want to block rather than just filter, go to the bot user profile and hit block in the top bar.

    Block that bot user?

    That's a stupid question. ;)

    Edit: Anyone downvoting this should be ashamed. It's a reference to his username.

    His character on Deep Space 9 infiltrates the space station by impersonating an admiral. He does this by saying the following phrase anytime someone asks him a question: "That's a stupid question". Because he's wearing an admiral uniform he gets away with his rudeness and the subordinates just let him infiltrate the station.

    Oh lol thanks for clearing that up. For some reason I was looking at the username in the picture trying to figure out how it dealt with the Wheel Of Time character lmao.

    Completely glossed over the commenters DS9 username. Patrick and the rest of them made that episode so funny.
