Such mutes would only apply to your view of the discover area.\r\n\r\nThere are two cases I think would be useful and appropriate:\r\n- hide a specific user's posts and chats.\r\n- hide all replies to a specific post.\r\n\r\nFor muted users, I think the user should probably be 'disappeared' to you globally. I can imagine there are people who you'd want to see in chat but not see their posts (or vice versa), but that seems like over complicating the feature.\r\n\r\nFor muted replies, I could see the implementation being one of two ways:\r\n- muted replies are not visible at all and cannot be viewed.\r\n- the post is \"muffled\" and collapsed, with no content shown. So you could \"see _x_ replied to _y_ muted post\" and click in if you wanted to view it.\r\n\r\nIf the latter option were chosen (which I think is better), perhaps you \"mute\" users and \"muffle\" replies.\r\n\r\nAdding this feature would also be beneficial and empowering to moderators, who could globally mute an abusive user to give them a timeout for bad behavior.\r\n\r\nOpinions?"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/bigboringsystem/bigboringsystem/issues/comments/70176488","html_url":"https://github.com/bigboringsystem/bigboringsystem/issues/55#issuecomment-70176488","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/bigboringsystem/bigboringsystem/issues/55","id":70176488,"user":{"login":"ednapiranha","id":83059,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/83059?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/ednapiranha","html_url":"https://github.com/ednapiranha","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ednapiranha/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ednapiranha/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ednapiranha/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ednapiranha/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ednapiranha/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ednapiranha/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ednapiranha/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ednapiranha/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ednapiranha/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-01-15T22:40:47Z","updated_at":"2015-01-15T22:40:47Z","body":"If posts need to be muted, we should just assign this as a separate issue with a different behavior.
