Hi all! I frequently see irrelevant garbage posts being published on these so-called tech news sources, frustrating you and me alike.

"blockedPhrases": [
"couches",
"vegan",
"diet",
"progressives",

"prime day",
"linoleic acid",
"freedom caucus",
"mental health",
"laptop deals",
"smart gadget",
"and your money",

If there are common phrases that are usually used in blog spam, but not in real tech news, feel free to let me know and I can update the config when I have a few minutes to SSH in and tweak it.
It’s links to articles aggregated from various tech news sources.
