> Feature request: Twitter idiocy cancelling mode

how about we just put a big stupid pink banner over the tweets Phil and Spanky don't like?

OK, can we have two additional flags in the user config:

1) A toggle that when turned on replaces all Twitter/Facebook embeds with some suitable message (like "Social media shyt chopped").
2) A toggle that when turned on hides threads with an initial post that is just social media shyt.

The idea is that is some FUQING BRAINDEAD SHYTEATER makes a post that's just some Twitter/Facebook nonsense it's not even visible.

Truth hurts, dont it?

You had no problem when twitter was moderated to only liberal lies. It was like phillup on roids:

- Diversity is a positive
- Vaccines are good
- Trump is bad
- Comply!

I would assume that being a shyt-eating moron hurts too, but you are in a much better position to judge that than I. You could go back and read the post I made some time before you made this one where I specifically mentioned that I had hoped that Musk might actually improve Twitter, but I guess that would have been too much work for someone that just assumes everything revolves around politics because they are way too much of a fuqing braindead qunt to conceive of anything else.

Did you put this request on the kanban board? Because if you did you're a fuqing loser.

Hmmm.  There probably is a way also to hide what looks like blank posts with only embed code.

That won't remove it from the topic list though, which is the desired behavior - the idea being that some post that consists entirely of regurgitated social media shyt is not deserving of any attention or engagement at all.

This is actually a planned feature. It’s one of the reasons I rewrote the profile page so it was easier to add more user configuration.

I could work on it in a week or two.

No. Before you spend effort on this, you need to implement my enhancement: Completely remove all twitter embeds.

The reason is a third party account is required for context. This should not be allowed. You are promoting/monetizing a third party site.

Don't make twitter embeds hideable/optional. Get rid of them for everyone.

OK, cool - as I mentioned before I have a locally satisfactory solution already, but it would be nice to have it as a supported feature.
