I am so sick of seeing his face everywhere. I’m blocking everyone.

[–] ViewSonik 26 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (5 children)

I miss Apollo where yoy could block any keyword which prevented me from seeing commwnts or posts that contained specific text…

Edit: someone below pointed out Voyager can do this in theur web app! Thanks again dude!

[–] ninekeysdown 26 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Voyager allows you to do that and since it a PWA you can use it and/or install it on any platform. https://vger.app

Boost does that. You can filter out a whole instance if you want.

[–] eoddc5 1 points 1 year ago

Ok but how do you filter away “elon musk”

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What app or webui are you using? Most of them have keyword filters now.

[–] ViewSonik 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Voyager, what do you recommend for iphone?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I primarily use Thunder, but Mlem, Memmy, and Arctic have filters afaik. Avelon has filters but you need to pay for it. That’s what I’ve seen with what I’ve tested. Liftoff only has blocking of users/communities.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Mlem allows for filters

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Arctic has separate filters for the post body and post title, which is really nice.

Avelon has keyword filtering and also supports instance blocking.

Both have been great!

Voyager has it on their web app, I need to update my post. I checked out Avelon and it looms you you must pay for upgraded app to filter. No thanks.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ah, didn’t realize that was a paid feature (already paid so I can’t see what is or isn’t paid).

I’m not a fan of web apps, they’re much slower than native. Arctic is completely free for all features, so that could be a better choice for someone wanting filters and a native experience. It’s still in TestFlight at the moment, link in sidebar for its community.

[–] ViewSonik 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Awesome, thanks for sharing. Ill check out Arctic too then

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No problem! There’s lots of great apps out there right now, really happy to see such an active community of developers!

[–] ViewSonik 2 points 1 year ago

Lol, I had to share this due to the timing of my comment…

Turns out there was a new voyage release TODAY that allows filtering keywords in the phone app version. Lmao whoops!
