    True, but the clients are still in their infancy. Liftoff has no support for it as far as I know. Meanwhile, I have the luck of running my own instance, so if the filter fixes it, that would be great.

    When I still used Twitter, I was very glad to be able to filter out Trump, otherwise I’d see half a dozen tweets about him per day. We’re kinda heading there with removed on Lemmy now, and I really don’t even want to spend the mental energy it takes to ignore it.

    Edit: meh. Using the slur filter just replaces “removed” with “removed”. Time to investigate some other clients I guess.

      I never tried this but someone said that if you put this into your ablocker cosmetic rules it should filter out entries with said keywords. Obviously only works if you’re using browser. The example is for posts containing the word “blockchain”

      lemmy.ml##.d-sm-block.d-none > .row:has-text(Blockchain)

        Ah yeah, with uBlock Origin that would probably work. I primarily use lemmy on mobile though. Now I’m giving Connect a spin. It has support for filters and it’s pretty customizable. Also, it’s free and has no ads or trackers.
