I find the lack of spam filtering tools Twitter provides us to be appalling. "vitalik.eth 50,000 Ethereum give away" is a well known example that keeps appearing from new accounts. I should be able to set filter. Right now I can only hide all content from the account, which keeps changing.

You can add keyword blocks instead of blocking the entire account. Isn't obvious, but it's there.

You can definitely mute keywords

FYI, they have to be exact phrase matches though. So you'll have to add permutations like "Ethereum giveaway" "Ethereum! give away".
