Filters

Patera has a layered filter system. Stack as many conditions as you like; they apply to the Live Feed and Top Performers in real time, client-side.

Numeric range filters

For every quantitative attribute on a tweet, set a min; a max; or both:

• Likes, replies, reposts, views
• Follower count, following count
• like-velocity, comment-velocity, like-acceleration, comment-acceleration
• Tweet age (minimum and maximum minutes since the tweet posted)
• Likes-to-followers ratio (useful for surfacing small-account viral moments)
• Engagement ratio: (likes + replies + reposts) / followers

Follower presets

Tap a preset to skip the dual-input dance:

You can multi-select. Patera ORs them, so a tweet matches if its author falls into any of the picked bands.

Follower / following ratio

Set a min/max multiplier on followers / following. Useful for filtering out follow-back inflation accounts.

Tweet type

Toggle each of these in include-only or exclude mode:

• Replies
• Retweets
• Quote-tweets
• Articles (long-form)
• Tweets containing URLs

Hide replied posts

A separate toggle in Settings that operates one layer above the Tweet-type filter. When on, every reply is dropped from both the Live Feed and Top Performers regardless of any other tweet-type filter. Useful when you only want to see standalone posts and quote-tweets across the dashboard. Persisted per user.

Media type

Same include/exclude logic for:

• Photos
• Videos
• GIFs

Account labels

Tag any tracked account with custom labels (e.g. analyst, politician, dev, meme). Filter by label in include or exclude mode to slice your watchlist into named cohorts.

Excluded accounts (per-feed blocklist)

Sometimes an account makes it onto your tracking list but you don't want to see it in the feed (translated automatically by X, untranslated by Patera; off-topic relative to its label; whatever). Hover any account in the Live Feed or Top Performers; the ⊘ button appears at the right of the name row. Click it once. The account is blocked instantly with no confirmation and disappears from both feeds.

The blocklist is per-user and persisted on the auth server, so it follows you across devices. Manage it from the Customise modal under Excluded Accounts: search by handle, restore an account by clicking the row's Restore button.

Searching the Customise lists

The Customise modal has two long lists that historically required scrolling: Labeled Accounts and Excluded Accounts. Both have a search box at the top now; type a handle or label and the list narrows in place. A small hint beneath the search row reminds you that hovering a row reveals the trash icon for removing entries one at a time.

$CA mode (crypto)

A dedicated toggle. Switch it on and the feed shows only tweets that contain a crypto ticker or contract address:

• $TICKER: $ followed by 1–10 alphanumeric chars.
• Ethereum / BNB addresses: 0x + 40 hex.
• Solana addresses: Base58, 32–44 chars.
• Tron addresses: T + 33 Base58 chars.

Turn it on when you want a generic crypto feed to become a launches/calls feed.

Saving and restoring filters

Patera remembers the filters and sort you set up so you can jump back to them without rebuilding the stack by hand. Two mechanisms live behind the Restore filters split control in the top header bar (dashboard view only):

A snapshot is three things together:

• Your Live Feed filters
• Your Top Performers filters
• Your Top Performers sort (Active vs Latest and the other sort fields)

Restoring brings back all three at once, so the chosen sort comes back too, not just the filters.

Restore filters (instant)

The left segment of the split control is labelled Restore filters. Click it and your most recent filters and Top Performers sort are reapplied immediately with no modal.

This snapshot is captured automatically on every filter or sort change and persists across reloads. A fresh page load always starts on the unfiltered default view; the saved snapshot is only ever applied when you ask for it.

The left segment is hidden (never greyed out) when your current view already matches the saved snapshot, so it only appears when there is actually something newer to restore. The chevron beside it stays available either way.

Saved filter and sort sets

The chevron on the right of the split control opens the My filters & sorts dropdown:

Each set is named automatically from the active sort plus the filter count (for example Active (recent engagement) · 3 filters or just the sort name when no filters are active) and the row shows the time you saved it.

You can keep up to 5 saved sets. At capacity, Save current filters & sort is disabled with a Max 5 saved, remove one first. message; remove one to free a slot.

Previous filters detected notice

The first time per page-load you open a Filters button (on either column) or the Top Performers Active / Latest sort dropdown, Patera checks the saved snapshot. If it differs from the default view, a one-shot Previous filters detected notice appears before the menu opens.

The notice previews the saved snapshot in three rows (Live Feed filters, Top Performers filters, Top Performers sort) and offers two choices:

• Restore now: reapplies the saved filters and sort.
• Keep current view: dismisses the notice and opens the menu you were reaching for.

It fires from the sort dropdown as well as the Filters buttons because the snapshot includes the sort. It shows at most once per session; a refresh re-arms it. After dismissing, the header Restore filters button brings the same snapshot back any time.

Filters apply everywhere

Active filters in the Filter modal apply identically to the Live Feed and Top Performers. There is no per-column filtering; one set of filters, two views.
