@sindarina The problem is I don't want to filter out all mentions of Watsonville, just these ones about the weather at the airport.

@jeridansky Ahh, yes, of course. Hmm 🤔

@sindarina Yeah, I've puzzled over this for days, tried a couple things, and no luck. It's not a big deal — it involves about 4 posts/day — but it's frustrating that I can't figure out why it's not working.

I've just tested it myself, it filters fine on my server.
As far as I can tell from what you've written, you've done this correctly so I'm not sure why it wouldn't be working for you.
I did notice that I had to refresh the post to make the filter kick in. Are you seeing this unfiltered even after refreshing your view of the timeline?
Also maybe try ticking all the boxes for where you want it filtered? I'm wondering if the filter's making exceptions where it shouldn't.

@feditips @sindarina Thanks for checking! Oddly enough, it just started working overnight, after days of *not* working. I didn't change anything in my settings, either. So who knows?

Glad it's working now! Do get in touch if it stops working again.
