If you're taking feature requests, I have one for you:

Let me filter the alerts. For example, I want an alert every time "foo" (a topic) comes up on social media. However, some fool just named their startup "foo", and now all searches for "foo" the topic are polluted with material about "foo" the startup.

So maybe let me set up alerts for "foo -finance -money -banks" because the topic is about gardening and the startup is in the financial services sector.




Ooh this is implemented! If you click on "Filters" at the top of any selected alert, you'll see options for keyword filtering, username filtering, and domain filtering. The UI/UX is a bit immature, so if you use it and have any feedback, I'm happy to address whatever friction you hit.


Ooops, not sure how i missed that. Thanks!
