So does the frontpage of WSJ, though of course it leans in the other direction.
Ability to block certain topics completely would be nice -- though it goes for all media. With ever smaller / faster (local) LLMs, I could imagine a nifty browser extension that does that.
- chipdart 2y ago> So does the frontpage of WSJ (...) Apples and oranges. Reading the WSJ is a kin to subscribing to a specific Twitter user: you know what content to expect, and you are interested to read more. Being force-fed political content you explicitly have not subscribed to is like you're reading the WSJ and out of nowhere you get pages from, say, MAGA's newsletter. Not the same, is it?
- square_usual 2y agoDo you think the Wall Street Journal and Twitter are functionally the same?
- freejazz 2y agoThe Wall Street Journal is a newspaper.
- simiones 2y ago> though of course it leans in the other direction. Besides what the others have noted, are you implying that the Twitter is leftist, or that the WSJ is? Overall, both the WSJ and Twitter very much lean right in the political spectrum.
- llamaimperative 2y agoYeah you're being downvoted but I think OP doesn't know what WSJ is or which way they lean and is just sniping at the existence (?) of journalists.

- epoxia 2y agoJust use cosmetic filtering on ublock to filter for certain words using has-text in [span, a, p] elements (div breaks some websites, thus doesn't work for hn comments). It helps remove a lot of noise on the web. Particularly on select topics that get astroturfed / rage-baited to hell. e.g. ##p:has-text(/tiktok|tik-tok|twitter/i)
