Politics blocklist
Just posting my list of filter words on here in case anyone else wants to make their feed politics-free
Biden, District, EU, alt-right, democrat, democrats, desantis, elections, far right, far-right, federal, gop, Jan, maga, nomination, representatives, republican, republicans, senate, senator, trump
It's quite refreshing.
You're viewing a single thread.
Isn't including "American, Canada, Canadian" a bit far? Lot's of non political contexts for those.
Hmm that's true, I guess the posts were just irrelevant to where I live. I will remove them from the list though since I want it to be universal
EU? That would be like banning USA.
I actually considered removing EU when I removed 'American' 'America' and 'Canadian', but I figured that 'EU' does usually refer to political news.
Depends. If you are talking to Asia or US just referring to yourself or a place as EU is the best option. Same goes for technical documentation. There is for example "EU machine directive" which would trigger the block list.
Canada, Canadian
There goes most of my feed ¯\(ツ)_/¯
They didn’t block Hockey…
I was going to make a joke about the Canadiens, but technically they're not blocked either
