Trying to avoid US elections content as a non-US citizen. Is this possible on the default Lemmy-UI? I prefer it over Tesseract and Voyager (which have built-in keyword filters) (feddit.org)

Hello everyone,

Basically title. At the moment I use the "hide post" feature when I see this kind of posts in generic communities (e.g. !nostupidquestions@lemmy.world ), but I was curious to see if anyone had another option, such as maybe a tampermonkey script?

Thank you for your help.

Use the keyword filter. First of all add the last names of the candidates. And also "voting", "election". I'm happy with the amount of posts that remain after that.

Lemmy-UI current does not have a keyword filter the same way Piefed does. Otherwise I would be happy to use it.

I didn't realise there were keyword filters. Thanks!

There are not on the default lemmy-UI, hendrik is on Piefed.

For Lemmy, some alternatives front-ends have filters:

Voyager: https://m.lemmy.world
Tesseract: https://tesseract.dubvee.org/

Yeah, sorry. You need an (android) app that does this, or PieFed...

It's a great feature, though. I'm not one of the people who get offended/annoyed easily... But I also prefer to consume some content and skip some other things...
