@ShadowJonathan my uspol filter has 24 keywords so far and it only catches maybe 30% of the posts that show up on my timeline because I don't have the mental energy to keep updating it.
Sure doesn't help that some people censor words and break filters entirely, because they never broke the habit of doing that on corporate social media.
I might just log out of Mastodon entirely from September to March because social media is always unbearable during US elections.
