    How do I go about blocking posts with particular words in the title? There’s some topics I’m sick of seeing.

      idk how it works in the browser or in other launchers but i use Boost and it’s settings -> blocks and filters -> muted words

      my personal block list is there for my mental health and sanity and includes: musk, elon, trump, donald, genocide, isreal, palestine.

      i still see posts that simply ommit any of the keywords in the title, but there’s significantly less of them, which is honestly perfect

          it truly is. nature never imagined us having access to all the world’s atrocities within the reach of our hand 24/7. empathy is supposed to make us bond within our little tribes, not get bombarded with words of death and misery across the globe
