This is my personal and minimal guide to HN (for whoever might be interested):

    ! Hacker News
    ! ===========
    ! Remove AI-related entries (Top: title / url)
    news.ycombinator.com##tr.submission span.titleline > a:has-text(/\b(AI|GPT|MCP|LLMs?|Chatbot|Copilot|Gemini)\b/):upward(tr)
    ! Remove AI-related entries (Bottom: stats / comments)
    news.ycombinator.com##tr.submission span.titleline > a:has-text(/\b(AI|GPT|MCP|LLMs?|Chatbot|Copilot|Gemini)\b/):upward(tr) + tr
to be added as filter in uBlock Origin.

(if someone can suggest a way to merge those 2 CSS selectors into one to avoid repetition, I'd be immensely grateful, as i failed while trying to learn about that arcane syntax)



My uBlock Origin rules use almost identical syntax (but there are a lot more of them, since I hide stories from TV news and clickbait sites):

(I also would love to know if there's a way to consolidate rules.)

dang has previously indicated receptiveness to built-in killlist functionality for sites/users/titles, similar to what this list accomplishes. My offer to build this (for free) stands, if anyone at YC was willing to provide access the HN codebase.


I may need to add this myself... I get flagged at work every time I hit an AI website regardless of if it's a blog article or not.
