Option to hide threads

    Just some feedback. I like Boards but sometimes I get a bit dismayed about some of the topics I see coming up on the trending or recent posts feeds

    For example, every time I see the "time for a zero refugee policy" thread it just makes me a little bit angry and annoyed. The whole conspiracy theory forum irritates me, I don't want to engage with those 99% of the time.

    Rather than try to stop the conversation that some people clearly want to have, can we have a setting to hide specific threads so they no longer show in the feed?

    It will allow people to focus on the positive and not get drawn into a cycle of negativity

    I would suggest an option to hide individual threads, or whole subforums, with a profile setting that shows them and allows users to unhide them
