Outrage
Hide the outrage bait without leaving the timeline
Outrage-engineered posts get quietly hidden on X, Reddit, Threads and Facebook. You can still scroll your timeline — the fights just stop being the main thing.
The pattern
- Every other post is someone furious about a stranger's tweet.
- You feel angry by 9am and you don't remember reading anything specific.
- You came for friends; you stayed for the fight.
What SanityMode does
Rage-bait phrases muted
Posts built around 'literally unhinged', 'I cannot believe', 'wild that', etc. collapse into a 'Muted: outrage' chip.
Quote-dunks hidden
Quote-tweets of strangers with under 1,000 followers (the classic outrage loop) get hidden by default. Friends still come through.
Reply ratio respected
Posts with an extreme reply-to-like ratio (the 'getting ratio'd' signal) get filtered out of For You feeds.
FAQ
- Will I miss real news this way?
- No. News from sources you've added to your allowlist comes through normally — only the outrage repackaging is hidden.
- Can I see what was filtered?
- Yes. A small daily summary shows what was muted and why, so you can tune your filters.
- Does this work in DMs?
- No. SanityMode never touches your private messages — only public feeds.
