Hide / Mute Posts Based on Content Rather Than User?
Hello! I have a question: if a user disliked a particular topic in a group, but likes other topics in the same group, and even likes posts by the other user on different topics, can a user mute or hide all posts based on topic?
For example, in a zoology group, if someone is really freaked out by spiders and afraid of them, but they would still like to participate in all non-arachnid-related content, is there a way to do this?
Thanks!




What you can do is filter the posts you see when you scroll through a comm by tag. But that doesn't work on the home page and it only works for tagged things and you have to do it manually.
Do you know Tumblr's xkit function Blacklist? You enter any word and posts containing that word are blocked on your dashboard (you can decide whether you'd still like to see that they were there, or not at all). Having something like this built in would be really cool.
This could get weird (people eventually demanding communities built around them alone) but especially in a smaller community where you're very active, you could ask the leaders to make a rule to tag the objectionable content (in this case spiders) under NSFW or spoiler if a picture is attached. And have people include the fact that a spider is involved in the title. Obviously there can't be trigger warnings on every single thing someone could have a phobia of but you can reasonably request that community leaders consider making accommodations so all users can enjoy the community fully. If there's a way to make a custom label that works the same way as NSFW and spoilers that would be amazing.
This is an alright short-term solution, but it could get clunky as we get more and more users.
Maybe not practical now but you never know, they may come up with a way in the future
