CounterSocial is a community of real people, and real people tend to discuss current events. If there's a topic that's harshing your mellow, then we highly recommend setting up filters to remove that topic from your timeline.

Seasoned CoSo users will set up temporary filters to limit exposure to certain topics, then go back and remove those filters after they've died down. It's a great way to curate your experience here!

@CoSoTips Do you know if I need to turn it into a hashtag? trying to lower the amount of voting messages I get but people use so many different tags and wordings im not sure how to manage it

@Zolah You can use partial word filters to maximize filtering. For today, I have "vote" added as mine. It'll catch most of those posts, and I can easily ignore the ones it doesn't. @CoSoTips

@CoSoTips that's great and all, the problem is that not everyone uses hashtags, so regardless of how many political hashtags I block, stuff gets through anyways

@Wolfthread89 It's true. Filters won't catch everything. Side effect of there being no algorithm to handle you here. I've become very good at just ignoring whatever gets through. @CoSoTips

@CoSoTips can I time-limit a filter? I don't want to forget to unfilter if I do....which is why I rarely use it 😏

@knomia @CoSoTips
Maybe you can set up a delayed text message to yourself? Or set a calendar reminder?

@knomia That would be an awesome feature, but alas. Not yet. @CoSoTips
