   Is it possible to hide all bots toots from local and federated timelines?

     Really good question! This would be a great feature to have.

     Short answer: no.

     There have been attempts to add this feature but they haven't been finished for various technical reasons.

     If you are comfortable using Github you can give a thumbs up to this issue, to let the developers know it is important:

     I've just given it a thumbs up myself.

     True, that's a great workaround ?

     If you find an account from that server click on ⋯ on its profile, then select "Block domain". But only do this if you're really, really sure you never want to see anyone from that server.

     (By the way, there are a lot of fun friendly bots on that server, I'm not recommend this block as a general thing. I recommend a lot of bots from there at https://fedi.directory/tag/bots/)

     @akhansari @feditips No, but if you want to get rid of a fair number, I'd suggest blocking botsin.space since that instance is mostly serving bots (although I'll be moving my Mastodon there soon).
