Natalie (ID: 000000f0edd2b94c) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 07/07/2021 It's pretty good however a lot of the time it doesn't work and I have to open the filter list and add a keystroke before it hides things with my listed keywords. I don't know if they problem is that I have too many words listed or what but it would be great if this problem could get fixed.
