Is there any way to block or exclude an author/user from my KDE Store main feed?  
I like to excitedly visit the KDE Store daily to see what’s new.  
But I always encounter pages and pages and pages of bad-quality spam from a single user.  
Any way to filter this single user out?

Thank you!

Which KDE store are you talking about, [https://store.kde.org](https://store.kde.org) or via the buttons in KDE Plasma that allow you to download addons directly?

Which user is flooding with spam?

Hi,

I mean at [KDE Store](https://store.kde.org/browse)  
it’s not spam as in ads or scammer posts,  
it’s spam as in 80% of posts are from this user on most pages, most of the time. He has like 700 recolored themes that he auto-posts or something.  
the user is l4k1

I am not asking to ban him, I just wanted to see if there is a way to exclude him from my feed. It’s really annoying having to change pages after 2 or 3 good posts because the other 8 are from that guy. Check about 15 pages and you will see the pattern, even some of the pages are completely full of his posts.

We take this as a suggestion to see if we can offer additional filter options.
