Keyword filtering is great, but could you please add regex filtering instead (as an advanced option)?

[–] aeharding@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Tbh regex keyword filters is not something I consider a high priority, but I don't see why it couldn't be added at some point. Can you add an issue to the github? Thanks!

Please excuse my ignorance but what is regex filteringΒΏ?

regex is short for regular expression. Basically, you can define a pattern that, if something matches, it gets filtered out. For example, someone might want all posts with email addresses filtered out (idk, I'm just trying to think of an example), so you could do something like:

.+@.+\..+

The period is a wildcard, so any character.

+ means one or more of whatever comes before it

@ is literally the @ symbol

\. means literally the period symbol

So all together this means "one or more of any character followed by an @ symbol, followed by one or more of any character, followed by a period, followed by one or more of any character."

This would be a really rough regex to match an email address to filter it out.

Disclaimer: this can definitely be done way better than my expression. This was meant to be a simple example and not something you should actually use. This would capture way more than just email addresses and probably match pretty much anything with an @ symbol, including user mentions.
