Regarding the post title: Lemmy itself allows you to block communities, instances, and users. But it does not support filtering by keyword, e.g. filtering out any post with the word “platypus” in the title regardless of where it was posted or by whom. With help from the comments below, here are some third party Lemmy clients that have their own implementation of keyword filtering:
- Eternity
- Raccoon
- Summit
- Tesseract
- Thunder
- Voyager
Do NOT support keyword filtering:
- Alexandrite
- Lemmy UI
- mlmym
- Next
- Photon
Comment anything I have missed or mistakes I made
Can you share a block list or good filter? I really couldn’t give a rats ass about US politics. I’m using Sync 🤔
I just have Trump/Kamala/Biden/Republican/Democrat … etc as individual filters
Israel, Palestine, Hamas, Russia, Ukraine, Election, Terrorist, Vote (on my alt which is just to scroll and look at animal pics and memes)
An honorable mention I’ve got on my blocklist is “shitlib” filters the hexbears and grads right out.
Many lemmy apps do though. I use the feature on voyager
And will also let you block entire instances, like say hexbear.
Instance blocking has been able on vanilla Lemmy for a while, no need for this at the client level
Voyager number one yeeeee
Definitely cool to be able to hide some topics
Piefed has that feature too
Same with MBin, we have this feature too, I’m surprised Lemmy UI doesn’t support it
Happy cake day!
@Blaze@feddit.org Thanks!! Doesn’t feel like it’s been a year on fedia, time flies so fast
@SatyrSack@feddit.org
Wait there are places that exist outside of the US?
Yep is a killing feature from Voyger .
Voyager UI too
I’ll never understand people who choose to live in ignorance
I’ll never understand people who think they can change someone else’s mind on the internet while arguing about religion or politics
You’ve convinced me: I’m converting to Islam and voting for Nader
I think you might have to respect that an anonymous forum on the internet where people regularly bicker and insult each other (atleast on politics posts) may not be everyone’s favourite way to interact with politics and news.
I’ll never understand people who think reading that 6,251st column about how Biden is really totally definitely looking into legalizing cannabis constitutes “knowledge”
