While this feature is available on many third-party apps, it’s not on the browser. However, since you’re already using an ad blocker, you can use it to filter out content as well.

To filter out posts with certain keywords, go to your custom filters and add this code. For example, to hide all posts containing the word “Elon”:

lemmy.world##div.post-listing:has(span:has-text("/elon/i"))

If your instance is something other than lemmy.world, just replace it with the correct domain.

To filter out comments, use this:

lemmy.world##article.comment-node:has(div.comment-content:has(p:has-text(/asshole/i)))

To add more keywords, simply duplicate the code and replace the keyword with another.

    I’m working on my own lemmy client that will support keyword filtering on both web and in the app. Still need a couple months before it’s ready for beta testing.

    New account because in the process of working with the lemmy API, I’ve realized how many API versions the world instance lags behind.
