Is there a particular thing that isn't working?

Did you try the guide at

@FediTips@social.growyourown.services yeah, the words I put in the filter list aren't being filtered

Try un-ticking the box marked "whole word" and then saving the filter. That should make it apply a bit more broadly.

Another thing to check would be the "Filter Contexts" options at the top of the filter settings. The more boxes you tick, the more widely the filter will work.
