support for filtering domains (from the results)

in-plaintext opened this issue · comments

Excluding domains doesn't appear to be supported. ddgr would preferably support reading filtered domains from a file and as CLI arguments. Users may not want to see specific websites in the search results — such as platforms which can't practically be viewed without an account (e.g. Facebook, Instagram, Quora, Discord, Twitter / X) but have a high search rank and/or aren't relevant to the user.

There are filter lists cataloguing domains (example, the raw lists) which exclusively scrape information for instance from Wikipedia, Github and Stack Overflow / Exchange (the uBlock Origin -specific rules can be conveniently converted plain domain names with a script).
