Default Hiding DNA Matches

This used to be a simple matter. Now, if I'm looking at an individual match, I cannot see the facility to do this. It appears only to be available if they appear in a list, when I can click the three dots beside their name.
Is this a temporary aberration, or permanent?

The Ancestry help info says

To hide a DNA match on AncestryDNA, follow these steps:

Locate the match you wish to hide.
Click on the three horizontal dots next to their name and select Hide Match.
Confirm your choice by clicking Hide Match again.

So yes, it seems that you have to do it from the match list.

Thanks, Kite. That's the only information I could find. It used to be so much easier. By the time I get back to the match list, I've forgotten who I was looking at and why.
