I’d like to tweak my feed by hiding all posts containing certain key words, e.g. ‘democracy, leftists, murder, liberals, fbi, market’ etc.

Basic use case: Don’t like what you see? Select keyword -> click RMB -> “Fitler for a week”. Now you won’t see any posts with this keyword on any Lemmy instance.

Is it possible somehow? Maybe a client with this functionality exists? Does it sound useful to anyone but me?

    Probably there’s too small userbase for continuous subscribable block lists. I think I’ve seen some people sharing their blocklists on anonymous imageboards. When you can import/export block lists as plain text, probably it is enough.

    Consider checking syntax where it’s already implemented and adding this import/export functionality.

    A step forward could’ve been adding some logic: e.g. some keywords are filters for posts, some for comments, some for community/instance name. Maybe complex filtering can make federated “global” feed much more satisfying.
