Description

Clear and concise description of the problem

Sometimes, we just want to temporarily block multiple feeds for a short period of time, but we don't want to unsubscribe. The existing automation feature may enable blocking, but they are not convenient. It would be more convenient if there were an option to (un)block on the menu of the subscribed feed when right-clicking.

Suggested solution
  1. The blocking option in the right-click menu can be set to quickly create an automated rule for blocking based on this subscription source
  2. Add a category or view specifically for blocking

Research direction

Start by tracing the subscribed-feed right-click menu and the existing automation feature. Confirm how a subscription source is represented for blocking, then define the menu action and blocking category or view; done means users can temporarily block and unblock subscribed feeds without unsubscribing.
