As the title says I want to block posts with specific words. I'm not an American and lately my whole feed is filled with trump/biden and I'm not slightly interested. Thanks in advance.

I remember seeing a post on lemmy blocking posts with certain words on firefox (and its derivatives) with ublock origin.

  1. Open My filters tab in ublock origin extension settings.
  2. To block posts with word random on lemmy.ml, add this to text field lemmy.ml##div.post-listing:has(span:has-text("/random/i"))'. i after random/ matches case insensitively.
