Ability to filter replies and/or retweets on a per follower/user basis #65

Open Deigue opened 1 year ago

Describe the problem

Seeing retweets or replies from particular users which we don't care about, meanwhile you still want to see retweets or replies from other users where it makes sense. The feeds/groups right now give the capability of all or nothing, while there is some room for improvement in being able to choose on a per user basis if you would like to universally see their respective replies/retweets or not.

Describe the solution

I can't imagine I am the first one to ask about this, but I would like the ability to filter replies or retweets, or both on a per-user basis. Like how you can setup a feed/group of multiple users, and then thereafter filter out replies and retweets, this would be a next step to that. The idea stems from functionality in an older app (Flamingo). There are use-cases where a user would only care about certain type of posts based on the person they are following. Allowability of customizing this on per follow basis, and additionally have this information be saved, and able to backup export/import as well in case this information needs to be transferred to a new phone.
