I did this on Firefox, but I suspect it may work in other browers too.

Install the Violentmonkey extension. Tampermonkey or Greasemonkey will also do.
Install the Lemmy tools script.
Browse to Lemmy
Click on the screw driver icon on the LemmyTools bar that is now visible on the Lemmy page.
Scroll down and check the box next to "Content Blocking"
Add your block words in the "Add filters seperated by commas." box. I typed "Trump, Vance" Voila!

How can I do that? I couldn't find it on the settings.

Would you believe me when I say that it simply doesn't appears in my screen???

P.S.: Voyager 2.18.4, by the way, not my main app but I have it installed.

That's strange. I'm running same version. Someone mentioned that it's not available on iPhone, perhaps that's the reason?

I don't think so. I'm on Android.

I've been looking for that forever! Idk how tf I missed it. I guess because I never scrolled to the bottom, and thought it only has community filters. Thank you!

That feature is not on the iOS version sadly.

It’s in mine. App version 2.18.5.

Ah, solved it. Need to be logged in before it appears.
