thankyou knowledge! I appreciate that. Let me know what you think...I think there are a couple of bugs I've seen already...I won't say anything though so tell me if you see anything funky.
it gets tricky...in this case the extension is literally just deleting the posts from the DOM (local copy of html stored in your browser), it's not replacing what it deletes with 'fresh' content from the blockchain that passes the filter, in this case, that isn't a resteem. In order to do that, we have to add a couple big layers of complexity on top...BUT...I think it's doable.
I meant to have a similar code to have more "search-ability"
what if this approach would be applied to be used on new / hot / trending feeds to "hide" any post that does not contain the search term?
You could absolutely do it, but it would have the exact same limitations, it would only display the valid ones, so if two posts matched, you'd see two posts until you tried to scroll. Could work alright, but would be SOOOO much smoother if we could pull fresh posts from the blockchain with steem-rpc and filter and merge them into the feed as it loads.

Scratch my last comment - now it works like a gem / purrs like a kitten ;)
what about similar code for filtering out content?! :)

true that - I'll have a chat with some developers...
either way, thanks for your effort mate - greatly appreciated
any time! thanks for being excited about it :P
mhmm I get an error (chrome extension): Your file was not found
it worked for others?
