Regarding the post title: Lemmy itself allows you to block communities, instances, and users. But it does not support filtering by keyword, e.g. filtering out any post with the word “platypus” in the title regardless of where it was posted or by whom. With help from the comments below, here are some third party Lemmy clients that have their own implementation of keyword filtering:
Lemmy’s user-level “instance block” does not block the instance though, i.e. it blocks neither users nor content from the instance, e.g. Lemmy still pings you if a user from that instance replies to your content in communities located on another instance. It would have been better named as a “community mute” instead, as all it blocks are the communities located on those instances (regardless of the origination of the post itself).
