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!

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.

P.S.: Voyager 2.18.4, by the way, not my main app but I have it installed.
2 0 ReplyThat's strange. I'm running same version. Someone mentioned that it's not available on iPhone, perhaps that's the reason?

I've been looking for that forever! Idk how tf I missed it. I guess because I never scrolled to the bottom, and thought it only has community filters. Thank you!

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.

Boost can do that. Just go to settings and search for block it will show you an option to block words
3 0 ReplyDoes 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
1 0 ReplyFor me it does work, but I am only scrolling in all never in new
