I'm running the latest beta (1.0.82) so firstly I like to say thank you for updating the community listing in the side panel! It now is correctly showing all the communities I'm subscribed to.

My feature request I would like to see in the app (and someone please point me to it if it already exists) is a post Score threshold filter. What I mean by this is, I like to browse posts by new so that I see more rapid change/turnover in my feed. Sometimes posts appear that have an extremely negative post Score (most recent example I have seen was at -41). If I were browsing by hot, or top or any of the other sorting algorithms, these posts would be weighted so low that they wouldn't appear. Is there a way to set a score threshold (say something like -5 (or even better make it user settable)) so that any posts with a score below that threshold get filtered out of all feeds?

So kinda like sort by controversial, like Reddit.

Not really? I don't want to see posts that have a negative score. I think there should be a small margin which is why I think the threshold should be to only see posts that are more positive than -5 say. I'm willing to give a chance to posts that might languish around -1/0/+1 points but for posts that are heavily negative, the community has decided they aren't relevant or worth it and so I don't want to see them in my feed.
