Sync and Boost both offer keyword filtering. That's why I finally decided to use Sync, it was the first app to allow blocking entire instances and filter by keyword. Lemmy is a pretty great place, once you can filter out all the noise.
No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Voyager and Mlem offer it on iOS.
The API doesn't let you block by keyword but I'm pretty sure a few Lemmy clients offer keyword filtering.
I use Sync and if you had put Musk or Twitter in the headline, I'd never have seen this.
What sucks is that I can't block "x" because too many other headlines have X in the word and the filter strips leading and trailing spaces from the keyword.
I can't block "x"
I think that's part of why he did it.
I'm sure it played a part
I haven't tried this myself but but you should be able to do it by creating custom rules on your adblocker
Example:
lemmy.world##.d-sm-block.d-none > .row:has-text(Blockchain)
lemmy.world##.d-sm-block.d-none > .row:has-text(ChatGPT)
Has-text is case sensitive. Adding / before the keyword and /i after will set it to case insensitive.
Example:
lemmy.world##.d-sm-block.d-none > .row:has-text(/Blockchain/i)
You can also use | to add multiple keywords to the filter.
Example:
lemmy.world##.d-sm-block.d-none > .row:has-text(/Blockchain|ChatGPT/i)
You can do it in a lot of apps/front ends
Which app are you using?
I'm just talking about on the website, should have clarified.
Which website?
Probably lemmy.world since that's where their user is seeded.
And I wouldn't know. I use voyager.
Maybe you can try getting it added to this userscript?
Oh, I misread keyword and keyboard.
Still, take a look here and see if anything adds it.
Fyi, there is a feature request on lemmy repository talking about this: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3710
