Does a large number of keywords increase scanning time?

I have two questions.
- Does the system also detect post authors? I'd like to scan posts created by specific people.
- Will adding more keywords, e.g., 100, increase scanning time? And could this have any other negative impact?

Hi Mieczysław,
Thanks for the questions!
While we do detect the author of a post, it's currently only used to allow you to exclude posts from specific authors if you choose. At the moment, there isn't a way to specify authors whose posts you always want to include. We'd be interested to learn more about your use case, as it's something we could consider for a future enhancement if there's enough demand.
Regarding keywords, adding a large number of them (even 100 or more) will not noticeably increase scan time. The primary downside is simply that broader keyword lists tend to match more posts, which can increase the amount of content you need to review. While those posts may contain one of your keywords, they may not all be relevant to what you're ultimately trying to identify.
Let me know if you have any other questions or if you'd like to share more about your author filtering use case!

One Stop Social Thank you for your reply. As for searching posts by author, that's part of a larger whole; I don't even know if it'll be effective. In any case, I'm interested in reaching people who like ads for specific products. Since sending them messages on Messenger can be treated as spam, and it does end up in spam, there's a roundabout way to find their post in a group and include the message in a comment on that post. Maybe you have a better, simpler solution. I'd love to hear it.
