As an Australian, I've found the Fediverse to be nicer and much less repetitive when posts containing these words are blocked.

Of course, that's my choice. Funny how meta doesn't provide a generalised keyword post blocker.... it's almost like they're worried you'd accidentally block too much or something.

And I do like the phrasing. "Here's how to get control back!" Yes, yes, get back your control of an endless algorithmic feed designed to maximise engagement and profit, of course, it's simple!
