If you can find the "nsfw" toggle, that's what I'm proposing.

Basically another button next to the "nsfw" toggle that would mute low rep or blacklisted accounts.

That way, people who want to see "everything" could simply toggle to their personal preference.

I don't like the idea that groups of self-appointed vigilantes get to decide what I can view and what I can't view (by default).

I would certainly appreciate an "opt-in" option instead of being forced (by default) to delegate my individual "post quality" viewing preferences to some un-elected hypocritical "libertarian" yahoos who I often disagree with (have you seen some of their personally endorsed "high-quality-original-content"?)

Usually it's right next to the "follow" button when you view their main page.
