boost seems to use a substring method when filtering, meaning if I add “republic”, that blocks any post containing “Republic of congo” or “republican”.
It looks like you’ve got some pretty short words in there, though, like “us” and “oil”.
Wouldn’t that block things like “boiling spaghetti”, “user”, “bus”, and a ton of other benign words?
Also, for what it’s worth, some of the words can be used pretty often in non-political connexts. “Fpv” is “first person view” in RC hobbies, for example, and “jail” is used in BSD-based operating systems.
Regex would be a nice addition.
Unfortunately, I think Boost is still closed source, so there’s little that can be done to improve it.
