Chamanewbie question: what does "filter out by regular expressions" mean in the timeline options?

gumbyscout@chamastories A regular expression is like a set of instructions on what you are looking for. They tend to be pretty arcane in appearance, but there's tools online to help you make them, like regex101.com
@gumbyscout So it's for finding content, not blocking it?
@chamastories I haven't messed with filter tools specifically, but typically regex expressions return 'matches' to your instrutions. I'm betting things that match the regex, are blocked if it's the context of filtering. Like for example you can have a regex to match the word cat i.e. /cat/ or block plurals /cat[s]/ etc.
@gumbyscout I will... google it some more. XD Thank you for the help!
