Boards is a cesspit quite often these days, but most of it the really obnoxious stuff is now in Current Affairs/IMO now. Just ignore that.

I don't see how it would make that much difference but clickbait threads don't bother me much. Sometimes they can turn out quite funny.

The ignore/block option is pointless. It should be done like Facebook where if you block someone they can't view or quote your posts either. Then again it's all public anyway.
