AO3 gives us a mute button!
I was overjoyed to see news from AO3 a few days ago that a mute button would be coming soon, making it so you could never ever ever have to see a particular user's fics again.
I got the button today, and I am so glad to be able to use it, finally.
There was an incident a couple years back where someone was putting explicit details of torture into their story summary, and every time I scrolled past it, I couldn't help but see it. It disturbed me so much that I couldn't even look at the Silmarillion tag for a while.
Needless to say, I have now muted that author, plus a few others whose works I never want to see. I love this new tool so much; I can finally curate my space on Ao3 appropriately.
