Hi all! I frequently see irrelevant garbage posts being published on these so-called tech news sources, frustrating you and me alike.
This morning, I've updated the bot to support loading a list of blocked phrases from its config. As of writing this, the block list currently contains:
"blockedPhrases": [
"couches",
"vegan",
"diet",
"progressives",
"save $",
"astrology",
"disney plus",
"hulu",
"apple deals",
"prime day",
"linoleic acid",
"freedom caucus",
"mental health",
"laptop deals",
"smart gadget",
"and your money",
"folding phones",
"chatgpt"
]
If there are common phrases that are usually used in blog spam, but not in real tech news, feel free to let me know and I can update the config when I have a few minutes to SSH in and tweak it.
Thank you!
