Provide an alternate way to remove a tracked blog

[nullbasis]

I'm using Firefox 39 on Ubuntu 14.04. Holding down alt and clicking on a blog name in my tracked blogs section doesn't remove it; it just activates an Ubuntu "feature" that lets me drag the window around.

From my understanding, since its an Ubuntu "feature", the solution is either to change the key that will remove a tracked blog to shift maybe or super or meta, or tell people with Ubuntu to change the mouse button modifier to something besides alt with dconf write /org/gnome/desktop/wm/preferences/mouse-button-modifier '"<Super>"'

Can confirm that changing the mouse button modifier like that fixes the problem.

Alt-clicking correctly removes a tracked blog on Windows 7, Chrome.

Since @phidari fixed their problem, is it safe to close this issue? Or should we reassign the alt key to something else?

It's been 9 days since anyone responded, so I'm going to close this issue.

Is alt-clicking the only way to remove a tracked blog? seems like something we should fix irregardless of how well it works for people

[bvtsang]

Maybe we can do something like the following:

1. User clicks on tracked blog
2. Tracked blog content shows up in a modal layer on the screen
3. Somewhere on that modal layer we add an option to remove that tracked blog

why not just a x when you hover over the blog?

Is the X where the unread post count usually goes?

I do like the idea though. Maybe have the X slide out from the side on mouseover? Or put it on the left side instead?

it would float:right and move the post count over
