Discard Rules
It is possible to discard activities added to a feed based on certain rules.
Common Use Case
One common use case is when users post in a feed that one of their own notification feeds follows. By default, the user gets a notification of their own activity. To avoid this, you can apply a discard rule so that the user's own activities can be filtered out.
Parameters
The following discard rules are available:
| name | description |
|---|---|
| discard_rule_default | Discard when activity actor matches the user_id of the feed |
| discard_rule_actor_with_colon | Discard when the second part of the activity actor split on colon matches the user_id of the feed |
To enable this feature, contact support with:
-
the name of the feed group
-
the name of the rule to apply
