A bunch of third-party apps have that feature, just not base Lemmy itself. Copying an old post of mine (which may be a bit outdated at this point):
Lemmy itself allows you to block communities, instances, and users. But it does not support filtering by keyword, e.g. filtering out any post with the word “platypus” in the title regardless of where it was posted or by whom.

Need to save this for the next time somebody says Lemmy is too toxic :3
Can Lemmy block keywords yet?
I’m pretty sure it can. At least on jerboa app
How? Opening Jerboa now, I see I can block things like users, communities, and instances, but I don’t see a way to block a keyword.
Yep looks like I was wrong. Could’ve sworn it had that capability. Maybe I was thinking of Apollo or something?
You can do it on boost
