fuck this, I'm officially unsubscribing from EVERY Identica groups BECAUSE of the #pollspam - I guess Ill miss a few folks & have to resub
about a year ago from heybuddy-
@thistleweb not a bad idea , but i think the worse group for #pollspam is !linux
-
:-( can't that be solved on the client's side?
-
@mvdan even filtering Poll: doesn't work, they come through anyway
-
@mvdan if it can, I don't know the magical spell, nothing I know works, responses are localised so you can't even filter words
-
@mvdan I'm seriously sick of "voted for..." to some inane question I don't care about, from people I don't know & can't block
-
@mvdan you can't even filter the multi language translation of "voted for" - it doesn't work anyway
-
@thistleweb you can filter all that easily enough if you're using !heybuddy
-
@jonkulp @thistleweb or block w/a text filter in !mustard. Filter string "voted for" & you won't see 'em again. I do this. :)
-
@jonkulp I am using HeyBuddy, filters don't work for me - I still get polls and responses no matter what I do, leaving groups seems to work
-
Ah, too bad. There must be a workaround, though. @evan might know the answer.
-
@thistleweb that's weird. I never see those things anymore. My the groups I sub to don't do 'em very much.
-
@jonkulp that's possible
-
@jonkulp perhaps the group mods should be clamping down to avoid pissing people off "NO POLLS!"
-
@thistleweb if you check "ignore activity posts" you still see activities? Or are polls not activities? string filter "voted for" shd work.
-
@jonkulp I cant see that option either on Identica or HeyBuddy
-
@jonkulp "old school - only stream mode"?
