I’m finally making the switch from Reddit. The Voyager app seems like a pretty seamless transition, but I’d love to hear any tips about using this platform, or what quirks distinguish it from Reddit as a whole.

    I’ve been able to filter out certain words/phrases to help get rid of most of the political posts.

    Happy to share if anyone is wanting

        Under filters/blocks in the app I use (Boost) there’s a section for blocked words. This is the list I have, and find it does a pretty good job:

        • Democrat
        • Democrats
        • Elon
        • Musk
        • Nazi
        • Putin
        • Republican
        • Republicans (need to add this one)
        • Russia
        • Tesla
        • Trump

              People don’t need to engage politically on every single platform they frequent. I’ve blocked a long list of political keywords, because 95% of the political content I see here is about a country I’m not from. Americans can scream at each other to their hearts’ content without my being obligated to participate or even observe.

              Well, I didn’t say running those specific filters was cool or not, just the ability to.
