Open a publisher page, then in the top right corner, look for a gear icon. Click it, and there’s an option to ignore this publisher.
Unfortunately there’s a limitation. This works only for those having a dedicated publisher page. For publishers without a dedicated page, Steam will fallback to the search page, which doesn’t provide a way to ignore this publisher.
I’m curious as to why. Granted I don’t even think I own a game by Stardock that I’m aware of, but always down for buying more ethically if they’ve done something heinous
Mostly for the fun of having a grudge at this point, haha. A long time ago when I was a kid they made a name for themselves with the “Gamers Bill of Rights”. It earned them a bunch of goodwill, and then they immediately released a game in a completely broken state missing half the features they advertised. At which point they dropped their “gamers bill of rights” and refused to give refunds like it stated.
Not particularly heinous by todays standards though I guess.

Thanks, I didn’t know that. I can maintain my silly decades old grudge vs Stardock now, haha.

Starforge?
That doesnt seem to actually do anything though? Like they still show up all over the place. Why can’t I block them across the board?
