Also, consider switching to Piefed to be able to use the built-in keyword filter. I haven’t seen US news since using it.

You know, I had an idea for another keywords filter for feeds. It works in reverse. You type in keywords you want to see in posts and it then makes you a feed comprised of posts of that nature.

That would be nice

@[email protected] is this something hypothetically possible?

Sure.

You’d probably end up seeing very few posts, though. Rather than filtering the timeline it might work best as a “notify me when posts with these keywords appear” function.

Well depends on the keywords. If one was to make a feed for Trump it would come up a lot. But the idea would be you could combine multiple keywords, so you might have a dozen or so.

Doesn’t mastodon have that? You type in a keyword and then you add it as a “user.”
