Global filters and ability to filter YouTube Shorts

So for example, I’d like to hide all posts that contain the word crypto, currently I need to wait until something pops up in my feed then add the filter in individually per feed.

It would be awesome if I could just globally filter a term from all feeds. Would also be handy if you hadn’t seen the latest Marvel film/show and wanted to avoid spoilers for example.

Also, I have a few YouTube channels in my feed, I have no interest in watching any shorts, but there is no way for me to hide them. I’m not sure if it would be possible to grab the length of the video and allow filtering of videos under a certain length.

I’d love to be able to do this. I understand that account-wide filters are computationally expensive, so limiting it to a paid tier would make sense to me.

You were faster than me. I absolutely would like these too.

Good news, this is now live! You can now set intelligence training at three scope levels: per-site (the default), per-folder, and global (across all feeds).

Train a keyword like “sponsored” as a dislike once at the global level, and it hides matching stories everywhere. Or scope it to a folder to fine-tune a group of feeds without affecting the rest.

All classifier types are supported: titles, authors, tags, text, URLs, and regex. You can manage everything from the new scope filter in the Manage Training tab.
