  • What you described at the end is exactly what I want to fix. You should be able to browse all. I’ll make it so the filters are easy to toggle on/off if you wanna peek what was is being hidden. Potentially I may add a scheduling feature if you want to subject your self to a limited amount of political doom every day. But for v1 of filters I don’t want to over complicate it.

    I’m not too worried vendor lockin. I’m not using anything that specific to GitHub. I’ll probably put the filters behind filters.blorpblorp.xyz so I can always point that domain to a different location later if I need to move off GitHub.

    Edit: I think I can get around codeberg pages not being high availability by cached the filters. Then when we are able to pull the most up to date version, it will update the cache. I was going to do this anyway in case you subscribe to a filter and it gets deleted. If it gets deleted, the filter list will still be cached.



    1. The filter spec I mention would allow you to crate a list that blocks all automated content. Either by post body like you mentioned or by blocking specific communities. The difference is instead of every person individually maintaining that list, everyone could share the list of filters.
    2. The filters will just be a json file. You will be able to host filters as long as the service you are using supports some sort of hosting. GitHub has GitHub pages. I would have to look into what codeberg offers



  • The filtering engine I’m prototyping supports filtering by title or body. I’m test driving a filter list to hide all US political content. I’m going to see how successful that is and then decide if body is necessary. So far, I’ve been able to accomplish everything I need without looking at the post body.





  • I know, it’s tough. I try my best to strike a balance between self promo and supporting apps. I’ve managed to open some communication behind the scenes between most of the lemmy client devs. And I fully support people using apps that best fit their needs (e.g. voyager provides more customization than Blorp, and it’s an all around solid app).

    I think I’m a good dev but a terrible marketing person. I should not be in charge of promoting my app lol. But unfortunately if I don’t do it, nobody will. So apologies if I don’t always have the best judgement for when to promote.

    Everything’s computer iOS

    I think that’s actually part of the reason they are doing Liquid Glass. Everything looks like iOS in its current state. Supposedly the compute required to calculate the light refractions in iOS 26 will make it more difficult to copy. This is not an endorsement of Liquid Glass. Just what I’ve heard… though personally I don’t dislike it.
