Assclown Mini TacosOK, 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.
(edited)
3) Another toggle that blackholes posts that consist of just an image - on the same "semantically void" basis.
The idea is that is some FUQING BRAINDEAD SHYTEATER makes a post that's just some Twitter/Facebook nonsense it's not even visible.

Poster above got owned on Twitter.

You're a moron - nobody can ever get "owned" on Twitter because it's all just noise. I had to admit I did harbor a vague hope that the S/N ratio might improve a bit after Musk took it over, but no, it's even worse now.

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.

anon user #3You could also just block it using an ad blocker. Usually it has a way to custom block things so you just add the embed code and viola.

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

I have actually already blocked it using TamperMonkey - just set up a rule that hides any div that has "card-type-tweet" as a class. The issue the posts that consist entirely of this crap - they still come up, but are empty. You could argue with some validity that the resulting empty post is an accurate reflection of the information content of the original post, but it would be nice to hide them utterly - because people that post stuff that consists entirely of some shyt they got from social media doesn't warrant any attention at all.

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.

Ah okay. I think tagging would probably help too. Make it so a post with an embed in the OP has a certain tag. Then allow the user to filter based on tag or lack thereof.

SockpuppetThis 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.

What does a viola have to do with it? Are you starting a string quartet?

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.

since we can't in-line image urls and have to use the stupid fotos, Twitter is the only alternative.

Sorry.

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.

Image-only poasts are just as fuqing worthless as Twitter-only ones. Actually, I think I should add that to my original feature request.
