Research direction

Open filterContent.tsx and inspect lines 217-227 alongside the linked React useState documentation. Determine which useEffect dependencies need reassessment, then verify that the resulting dependency list matches the documented stability guidance and that the relevant checks pass.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

according to official react documentation

"The set function has a stable identity, so you will often see it omitted from Effect dependencies, but including it will not cause the Effect to fire. If the linter lets you omit a dependency without errors, it is safe to do."

so lines 217:227 needs to be reassessed
