The author (OP) proposes community generated and shared block lists.

I’m imagining an opt in block list, where with enough downvotes, if you are a member of the block list, the content is hidden.

If the block list starts blocking content you want, you can fork it, keep the parts you want, remove the parts you don’t.

This is a genius idea, I'm adding it to my sites today!

Everyone knows one another, so if one person blocks a bad actor, it makes sense that everyone else will block them sooner or later.
