Hide unwanted entries, add corresponding format Manga/Manhwa/Manhua/Webcomic :planned:

[leduo95]

Suggest to have option to hide entries that you don't have interest in, or, hide entries that get rated [Appalling] at least (for each individual of course).
Reason for this is for no longer seeing uninteresting manga update on front page (which, is quite very often, some groups decide to 'dock' on frontpage by uploading from every 2hrs to 20mins).


Since hiding group option was planned, but not yet available, the above suggestion might not be considered. So I propose another one:

Suggest to add Manga/Manhwa/Manhua/Webcomic to Format.
Reason:
- because not every people want to read all of them: some might prefer one over the others.
- avoid confusion with reading direction (left-to-right, light-to-left).
- easy to search for, and also filter out by [Excluded tags] in Settings.

Adding new categories/labels to the current tag system sounds more possible compare to implementing new ones.
As for how to decide which entry belong to which format, how about based on original language of the entry? Correction will be handle when users report for feedback.

@leduo95 already planned in the megathread under "Blacklist language of origin and demographic" and "Hide series set to dropped"

Manhwa is Korean language of origin
Manhua is Chinese language of origin.
There's no need to specifically add them as formats.

@Plykiya As far as I concern, future plans are progressing at a very slow pace (it takes time, I understand that), especially for new features like hiding individual series/group/user.
The "Blacklist language of origin and demographic" however, can be simply merged with format, since [Excluded tags] is already functioning well enough, just need to add specific formats to widen the range of filtering. In my opinion, making 2 tools for a same purpose is not necessary (but hey, that's just my opinion alone).

Anyways, thank you for the reply, and please consider opinions if possible.
