Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I started to use RSS-bridge to monitor twitter for a couple topics related with our project. I works great, however a couple of queries are kinda garbled by a couple of accounts to post using keyword/hastag. I can mute them on the website, however RSS-Bridge is WAY BETTER to keep track of what's going on (but unfortunately it includes those useless twits). There is #1105, which is somewhat related.

Describe the solution you'd like
In the twitter box add two additional boxes:

  • excluded usernames (twitts from those accounts won't be shown)
  • excluded keywords/hashtags (if twitt contain any item from that list, it won't be included in the feed)

excluded keywords/hashtags (if twitt contain any item from that list, it won't be included in the feed)

Take a look at the tool tip for the input field of the keyword. More details here:

'title' => <<<EOD
* To search for multiple words (must contain all of these words), put a space between them.
Example: `rss-bridge release`.
* To search for multiple words (contains any of these words), put "OR" between them.
Example: `rss-bridge OR rssbridge`.
* To search for an exact phrase (including whitespace), put double-quotes around them.
Example: `"rss-bridge release"`
* If you want to search for anything **but** a specific word, put a hyphen before it.
Example: `rss-bridge -release` (ignores "release")
* Of course, this also works for hashtags.
Example: `#rss-bridge OR #rssbridge`
* And you can combine them in any shape or form you like.
Example: `#rss-bridge OR #rssbridge -release`
EOD

Does that work for you?

excluded usernames (twitts from those accounts won't be shown)

As mentioned in #1105, an exact match is simple. Once advanced search come into play - which you need in order to exclude certain keywords/hashtags - it gets a tad more complicated. I'll look into this if I have more time to spare.

Oh! I've missed that and it looks like it solves even more than I asked for (for some reason I haven't thought about checking the tooltip - I think I got used to the (?) icons next to the fields with possible hints which, if you thing about it, is just silly)

Thanks!
