sbandadu··on Show HN: Feedseer – A Mastodon instance to filter out posts based on content
Yes. Feedseer's qualifiers can do much more than regex filtering, like use AI to analyze the sentiment of a toot. The implementation details of a qualifier (regex, AI or other) are up to its creator and happen outside of Feedseer. Independently, a Feedseer user has the freedom to not use a qualifier (the default), or use it to take action (categorize/filter).

I got some feedback that it's hard to understand the site without seeing it in action. So, I wrote this post. https://medium.com/@sunilbandla/introduction-to-feedseer-578....

This will be useful to consumers too since they can filter out angry posts from users they don't follow. I agree that, in practice, this might be more useful to moderators. Another use case is to automatically move posts to folders based on text/URLs in them.
