Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Having a more direct and detailed filter list is useful to manage what content appears in the feed.

Describe the solution you'd like

Posts could be filtered by lists depending on different values. There could be different filter entries or "collections" each having it's own values and name. (These lists of filters could be exported with settings or as another entry separate from "Offline accounts" and "Settings" called "Filters". #476 and #475 is related) Posts could be filter by...

  • Title
  • Subreddits
  • Users
  • Flairs
  • Domains
  • Vote count (min, max)
  • Comment count (min, max)
  • Award count (min, max)

Different kind of posts could be filtered as well with filter entries: Text, Image, Gif, Video, Link, Gallery

Filter 1 example:

Will only apply to these: Texts, Links, Gifs
From subreddits: X
or
From domains: x

Filter 2 example:
Will apply: Every tipe of posts (all of them are checked) will be filtered with these values:
From subreddits: Y
or
From users: y
or
Has flair: "Meme"

Describe alternatives you've considered

Filters that could be supported (or rather translated into a query) are listed here: https://old.reddit.com/wiki/search (correct me if there's some other doc)

Everything else achievable only using client-side filtering. Client-side filtering has its own complications and tradeoffs and can be extremely ineffective, I'm not sure if it's worth to go down that road

@AbsurdlySuspicious I have seen some clients do it well before. Dawn is a pretty minimalist app so I didn't think about anything hardcore.
