FYI Piefed has this feature, as well as post filtering by keyword

p03locke@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 days agoWhy, in 2026, am I forced to read a -50 vote transphobic comment? Does Lemmy just not have the technology to implement a collapse icon that auto-collapses on stupid shit like this?
I could code this in a day. I could have an LLM code this in an hour.

I would be opposed to that feature. I didn’t like it on reddit and I certainly wouldn’t like it here. We already have a block button if we don’t like what someone is saying.
I wouldn’t use that feature. Transphobia is against my instance’s TOS and many other instance’s TOS so if you’re silently filtering it out, you’re not reporting it and leading to those pieces of shit being banned. Which stops it outright.
Report stuff like that when you see it. Report it to instance admins like I do. In time people will learn to hold their tongue or just be too banned to say evil shit like that.
