The beauty of the Fediverse is that many tasks like this can be done by the client, as opposed to the actual base software.
For instance, Lemmy can't actually block instances or "subs" (or whatever the equivalent is) on an individual level, but Voyager can.
On another point, as much as I hate hearing about Musk and Twitter, they are both very powerful, and both have an impact on the world. Especially if Twitter were to become an "everything app" (AKA Superapp)(which it hopefully won't).
True, but the clients are still in their infancy. Liftoff has no support for it as far as I know. Meanwhile, I have the luck of running my own instance, so if the filter fixes it, that would be great.
When I still used Twitter, I was very glad to be able to filter out Trump, otherwise I'd see half a dozen tweets about him per day. We're kinda heading there with removed on Lemmy now, and I really don't even want to spend the mental energy it takes to ignore it.
Edit: meh. Using the slur filter just replaces "removed" with "removed". Time to investigate some other clients I guess.
