Support filtering posts by link hostname

Requirements

• [x] There are no existing issues for this feature.
• [x] This is a request for a single feature (create multiple issues for multiple feature requests).

Description

I’ve been attempting to filter posts that link to youtube.com as I don’t much enjoy browsing Lemmy for videos but it doesn’t work.

I propose that the keyword filter also support blocking posts that contain the specified hostname(s). In my case, adding youtube.com (and/or other YouTube-related hostnames) would prevent posts with links to YouTube from appearing.

Lemmy is introducing this feature in the next major version (Lemmy 1.0). PieFed has this feature on the website, but there's no API support yet. As soon as either platform adds API support for the feature, we'll look into adding it to Mlem :)

That's great news! I wasn't aware that either was doing that "upstream."

Thanks for the update.

PieFed had API support for this now
