I wish there as some way to block the word Musk from KBIN. The man is fascist trash, I don't need to read about every fascist fucking trash thing he's done, or is doing.
Add the following to your filter list for uBlock Origin:
kbin.social##article:has-text(/Elon/i)
kbin.social##article:has-text(/Musk/i)
EDIT: Here's a version for lemmy users, just remember to replace the domain with your instance.
lemmy.world##.post-listing:has-text(/Elon/i)
lemmy.world##.post-listing:has-text(/Musk/i)
Edit2: Fixed case sensitivity.
I feel that, which is why I forked a tampermonkey script to replace his name globally. This is nice because it covers every site, which makes reading articles on WaPo and NYT much less irritating. Here's what this thread looks like on my end, for instance:
And the script itself:
// ==UserScript==
// @name Text Replace
// @version 0.1
// @description Text Replace
// @author SiameseDream
// @include *
// @grant none
// @namespace beepboop
// ==/UserScript==
(function() {
'use strict';
var replaceArry = [
[/ Elon Musk/gi,' the biggest twat on the planet'],
[/Elon Musk/gi,'The biggest twat on the planet'],
[/ Mr. Musk/gi,' this dipshit'],
[/ Musk/gi,' this dipshit'],
[/Mr. Musk/gi,'This dipshit'],
[/Musk/gi,'This dipshit'],
// etc.
];
var numTerms = replaceArry.length;
var txtWalker = document.createTreeWalker (
document.body,
NodeFilter.SHOW_TEXT,
{ acceptNode: function (node) {
//-- Skip whitespace-only nodes
if (node.nodeValue.trim() )
return NodeFilter.FILTER_ACCEPT;
return NodeFilter.FILTER_SKIP;
}
},
false
);
var txtNode = null;
while (txtNode = txtWalker.nextNode () ) {
var oldTxt = txtNode.nodeValue;
for (var J = 0; J < numTerms; J++) {
oldTxt = oldTxt.replace (replaceArry[J][0], replaceArry[J][1]);
}
txtNode.nodeValue = oldTxt;
}
})();
Twitter has more users than Mastodon, that's a fact. But it's also a fact that Russian propaganda was highly prevalent on Mastodon in the early days of Musk's intentions to purchase Twitter, from my own perspective.
I mean, duh?
