@cheeaun yes, but maybe, I'd be inclined to say the filtered post should be blurred out, but the QP visible?
Arguably someone boosting a lot of stuff you filter probably isn't the best person to be following.
@cheeaun yes 100%. i dont want to see people react on shit i dont want to see.
especially think about people's mental health. they have to trust in the options you give them to create a safespace
@cheeaun Nah. Of the QT text is not filtered, then don't filter it. The Quoted posts should be hidden, though.
@cheeaun by quote-post you mean a status that contains a link to another status, and the linked-to status would match the user's filters?
@cheeaun I think of filters as defensive measures and I want software that helps me defend myself.
For context, this is how it looks like now on Phanpy. No other clients seem to be doing this(?).
Quoted post is filtered, but the parent post is not.
@cheeaun Please don't change this unless it's configurable (i.e., the same way the boost carousels can be turned off in the settings).
@cheeaun I have a pretty aggressive "politics" filter that completely hides A LOT of keywords / hashtags. I've noticed recently stuff slips through when "big" events happen, because people will talk about those events as though everyone is aware of the context without using any filtered words, phrases, or hashtags.
I think in the case of a linked post, you now have that context and can assume the main post is going to be talking about or referencing a filtered topic, and should be filtered.
@nikclayton yeah.
@cheeaun If it's just a filter match then I think the argument for applying it to the target of a link is weak. Because then you could argue it should be applied to the target of all links.
I think there's a much stronger argument to - at minimum - hide it behind a warning if the linked-to account is muted or blocked.
I think that argument also applied to accounts mentioned by the new byline feature.
@thisismissem filtered QPs are actually “collapsed” in Phanpy - surprisingly works, seems like no other clients are doing this.
Sometimes the filters are “seasonal” so still worth following the person but not interested in some specific posts.
