Conflicting tags are ignored on purpose. For example articles tagged under #webdev and #react, would not/never interest me if I'm ignoring #react.

The idea with the 'Recently blocked articles' is actually already implemented, but limited to 5 for now :)

Cool but what about a post tagged both react and vue ?

That's the dilemma I guess..

Maybe there should be a separate list of tags to always show/never ignore. It would then work like this:

ignored always show followed
react vue vue
webdev
post tags shown?
react, vue, webdev yes
vue, webdev yes
react, webdev no

Seems complicated to me. I'd rather see a post I'd rather not see that never see a post that I'd enjoy reading.
