Disallow/Blacklist hashtags
-
Hi everyone.
I note that there is a section Federation -> Categorization which allows you to have hashtags go to a category, and you can have a post with certain hashtags go into a queue for review, but I don't see a "Hashtag blacklist" where it outright rejects the post.
Is there one that I am not seeing or is that not a thing?

@Crakila hi!
Yes, you've found the right page.
The categorization page allows you to slot incoming content into a specific category.
There are two options (you've discovered one) for you:
- Check "filter", which causes those posts to land in the post queue
- Set the category to World (cid
-1), which will cause them to stay uncategorized, and pruned out after 7 days.
Right now there's no facility to outright reject a hashtag, but I think you've come across a really relevant use-case that I should support.
