    Does your filter recognize whitespace? Including a space before and/or after X should catch the posts about the platform while not filtering out posts that just have an X inside a word somewhere. X isn’t going to be a single letter surrounded by space unless it’s referring to the platform.

      i have tried with various formats and unfortunately none of them work, or they just ignore the attempt.

      i appreciate you trying to help, though. i honestly just kinda wish it would change names again so it’d be easier to somehow block. lol

        Ah, fair enough. I’m almost certain some sort of regex wizardry would be able to solve this problem, but I’m not nearly enough of a wizard to tell you what the proper spell would be. And that’s assuming your filter even supports regex.

        Best of luck dodging headlines, I guess.
