[Request] Don't filter blocked community post when directly accessing the community (lemmy.world)

Love the app and love the work you are doing on it! Thanks a bunch! I am running into one minor issue:

Right now if you block a community, then search for the community, it shows, but it will appear that there are no post in the community.

Ideally, if I am accessing a community from the search, even if I have blocked it, I would still like to see the post in it rather than having to unblock it.

For example, I almost exclusively use “All” and “Home”, in “All” political subreddits can get over bearing so I blocked it, but when I want to go look at the community in light of recent events, they all show as blank.

Ideally I would love a warning on the search page that I have blocked the community, but clicking into it will still show me all the post of the community.

As a temporary measure could you set up a second account with different communities blocked? So browse on your main with everything as you have it but if you want to dive into the politics communities, switch to your alt account?

It's like having a porn alt for politics.

Feels like this is the best way really. Having a separate account would also let you save those communities you’ve blocked on your primary account as favorites under your secondary account for quick retrieval.

This is a really smart work around! Thanks! I would still appreciate if I didn’t have to use an alt, so I am going to leave this post up.

This would probably be more on Lemmy as I’m sure that’s where the block is taking effect.
