Two things you can try:
Turn off hyphenation in the paragraph style.

It's basically the exact same method in the question you linked to. Merely apply a stroke rather than a fill.

The general approach is to try to avoid these as much as possible, but this depends on the item being designed:

Or try to right-click on a text, then choose 'Select same' > 'Object type' to select all texts in the current document. Then you can change their style.

To change the style or attributes of any objects in Inkscape you first need to select them. Unfortunately, Inkscape doesn't have a character styles panel like word processors or page layout software where you can define character styles.
