How to whitelist tags?

Question

I don't want to keep adding tags to the ignored list.

Is there a way to hide everything in my frontpage and only whitelist certain tags?

Answer 1

Use the (fairly) recently introduced "Custom Question Lists" feature:

• On the Questions page, click the Filter button
• Add the tags you want to whitelist to the "Tagged with:" list
• Click the Save custom filter button and give it a name like "My Whitelist"
• Go back to the Questions page, click the "More" dropdown and select your custom filter
