This, and the ability to use flairs would be really useful here on Lemmy. Flairing posts was such an essential way to organise posts on a lot of specific subreddits.

That kind of feature is so needed

I can't help but wonder if this would be better served at the client level. Either way I miss this feature.

The Connect app on Android already has a lot of great filtering options. You can filter posts that contain certain words, and I believe it just added the ability to hide entire instances.

Yes please. My blocklist on R....t had so many random words I just prefer to avoid for whatever reason. I worry for my state of mind as Lemmy grows and they start appearing.

I think on R it was part of the API, but I'm not sure.

Btw why post this in shower thoughts and not somewhere Lemmy related? Tbh it's also a tad annoying seeing meta Lemmy posts everywhere. Nostupidquestions is nothing but Lemmy already

I just want to filter by language first. I can only read English. So i dont want to see all the german (or others) communities that keep popping up.

Looking at you Linux
