me, for years: why doesn’t ao3 have an easy to use tag/user/work blocking system. seems basic. the existing work filtering system is kind of a hassle in practice if all you’re trying to do is avoid something without worrying about making a new search every time. there’s a huge disconnect between the way the site exists and how a lot of people use it, and at the very least it could use a lot of QoL updates.

whatever is going on rn idk i’m not really paying attention: happens

me: yeah so, i mean frankly i’m shocked this didn’t happen sooner,
