TIL how to block all posts containing the words Trump or Vance.
I did this on Firefox, but I suspect it may work in other browers too.
- Install the Violentmonkey extension. Tampermonkey or Greasemonkey will also do.
- Install the Lemmy tools script.
- Browse to Lemmy
- Click on the screw driver icon on the LemmyTools bar that is now visible on the Lemmy page.
- Scroll down and check the box next to "Content Blocking"
- Add your block words in the "Add filters seperated by commas." box. I typed "Trump, Vance" Voila!
You're viewing a single thread.
While we're at it, any recommendations for a Lemmy Android client that can do the same?
Jerboa doesn't appear to have anything other than blocking by: site, community or user.
Voyager
Voyager too for iOS users. Closest app to Apollo in the beforefore times.
Most third-party Lemmy apps other than Jerboa contain some form of keyword filtering. Boost, Sync, Voyager, Eternity, and more. Mlem as well if you expand to iOS.
Sadly though I don't think any of the popular desktop frontends support filtering. I don't see it in Alexandrite, and I checked Photon and mlmym as well and also see nothing indicating that is a possibility.
its on the list for mbin
Boost can do that. Just go to settings and search for block it will show you an option to block words
Does it work for you on Boost? I've blocked some communities and keywords with Boost, but sometimes they still do show up for me in New
For me it does work, but I am only scrolling in all never in new
