Long press selected words and hashtags to filter #146

Describe the solution you'd like

It would be great if when long pressing on either a highlighted word, or hashtag if you could easily add it to your filter list.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Copy the word, navigate to the screen and paste, then configure filter options.

Thanks!!

Desperately need this, especially since Metatext has poor list support, so I am reading my full timeline rather than a curated list as my primary feed. As far as I can tell the only way to add a filter, even for a hashtag, is to remember it (long-pressing opens a search for that hashtag, and it's difficult to copy the text without clicking on it), tap profile icon on the upper left, Preferences, Filters, Add, type in that text you hopefully still remember, toggle Home timeline (since all the toggles default to "off" for mysterious reasons), Add, then go allllllll the way back out to the timeline.

For hashtags specifically, see also #232. Personally I might want to mute or follow a given hashtag.
