Blocking and Reposting Epic (work required to fully remove filters app side)

[tzarebczan]

• [ ] linked issues in epic

• [x] figure out what resolve should show when content is blocked / filtered. There should be some indication on resolve that the content was filtered.

• [x] figure out how we are differentiating between blocking / filter lists. We could go with tags or blocking channel name + tag (or some other way to designate blocking vs filtering). Right now we have 2 params, but besides the name (lbry-blocked, and lbry-filtered), there's no indication of which is which. Also, when doing a claim search, only one high level blocked summary is shown.

  • Not sure if separate channels alone will work for distinguishing for this- since the output in claim search/resolve will vary by the type. i.e. a filtered claim will still resolve and show why it was filtered, whereas a blocked one won't fully resolve. Filtered would be removed from claim search though. A third type would be web-only filtered, but that should work with lbry.tv + additional filtered channel. The other downstream work, like on reflector, will also need to make a decision on what to do based on the type (i.e. don't delete blobs for filtered, but delete for blocked). Also, for https://github.com/lbryio/lbry-sdk/issues/2740 to work, it would need to know which (at least a count) are filtered

• [x] Should/could we do something about claims being reposted to a new channel if channel level blocking is used?

• [x] Add additional metadata options to repost api https://github.com/lbryio/lbry-sdk/issues/2679

• [x] Add / support APIs for updating reposts https://github.com/lbryio/lbry-sdk/issues/2678

• [x] support blocked channel ids - all claims signed by this channel should be blocked.

• [x] support filtering (only block from claim searches, don't block from resolve).

My notes from recent testing:

• [x] blocking stops it from being resolved currently - is that what we decided? How would we know something doesn't exist vs is blocked?

• [x] Channel fails to return when referenced by name, but shows blocked if queried by id:

@tzarebczan lex's notes say this is "fixed from last time". can i close it?

[tzarebczan]

This is an epic that needs more follow on work. Hopefully in the next week or two we can fully close out.
