I started with server-side php scripts (SimplePie, IIRC) and got banned so I moved to client-side. I don't believe that it is in our best, long-term interest as users to make publishers aware of the possibility of aggressive filtering and page modification.

But let me donate some (US centric) general news negative keywords and phrases for you to try;

wonder if there are similar projects out there

Yes, I've been using Tampermonkey for filtering and modifying sites I visit frequently for 5 years or more. Before that, Ublock to render the page to my preferences. I started with filtering unwanted items in Craigslist and it grew from there. Now, I even filter HN.

My filters mostly remove topics but I also highlight articles with topics of interest. I use this along with scripts and extensions to "white-out" any articles I've already seen.

As you mentioned, though the logic is generally the same, the script has to be customized for each site.

There are concerns that Manifest 3 will cripple adblocking and many userscripts so I've recently moved to Firefox (Crostini).

I ended up writing my own using SimplePie. Here's a multifeed demo: http://simplepie.org/wiki/tutorial/how_to_replicate_popurls

With the demise of many of the Craigslist national search apps, I ended up taking SimplePie into that realm and produced a 418-CLfeed search engine for personal use as a collector/hobbyist ...OK, hoarder. Works!

Not counting an introduction to fortran in college, since 1978. Language was GP300.

It's easy to write about what you should have done after you've made it through the gauntlet.

ScottWhigham is correct, in my case it was 'gain' not salary. But the income averaged around 40-50k USD for years. I bootstrapped it with personal funds and keystrokes. (Sites started around 1994. Sold out 2011.).

The current crop of Youtube commentors are the target of this purge, not collateral damage. Big G's high$$ advertisers aren't interested in being associated with free-form comments.
