Minds Block Channel

Block is block.

To block a channel should mean that you don't want to see any post from that channel. Whether the post is a remind or "unsubscribed feed" ("Boosted content, Search results and Discovery feeds are examples of unsubscribed feeds on Minds.")

In other words, the blocked channel should not exist for the blocker.

No exceptions.

Unfortunately, block doesn't mean that to Minds today.

Unsubscribed feed is important to Minds. I think it's important to Minds because they believe it's their "bread and butter" to attract more users.

This is just an example of Minds putting themselves ahead of the users. Which is contrary to their goal of attracting more users.

And it adds more work for Minds to moderate content instead of allowing Minds users to control what they see and hear.

Unnecessary work for Minds which mean more time and effort wasted on something that the typical Minds user doesn't want and need.
