Discussion
Next: figure out if I can hide an entire thread of comments started by a blocked person. I can already hide their comments, I want to hide replies too.
Yes, some replies can be positive - and in the Zig thread, most were, and I hit the upvote button plenty of times -, I don't need to read them. I'd rather stay out of that entire part of the discussion, even if that means missing some good comments, even if that means not upvoting things that'd deserve upvoting.
After one thread: three new entries, but two of those are mostly preemptive, and they had only one comment in the thread each.
That is a decent outcome.

lobste.rs##.comment:has(a[href="/~$username"]) + .comments .comment .comment_text:remove()
There we go. Ideally, I'd replace the text of the comment_text node, but I've yet to figure out how to do that.
lobste.rs##.comment:has(.byline span a[href="/~$username"]) + .comments .comment .comment_text:remove()
This should be slightly more correct. Still removes, though.
I will also need a filter - if such a thing is possible - that highlights commenters with opinions that align with mine.
It is absolutely delightful to see a lot of very good pushback against the sloppers in this thread I'm looking at.
#Zig people: I love you.
