   Reminder for all folks on here, especially #NewHere, that if you're using #Mastodon as your #Fediverse home, you can easily filter stuff from your timeline:
   https://docs.joinmastodon.org/user/moderating/#filters

   Other instance software and client apps might have similar affordances.

   Today might be a good day to test these tools. :blobcatangel:

     @jared the reason why they never worked on other social networks is because that would clash with the best interest of the operators of these other social networks, who have a very good idea on what they want you to see in your timeline.

     I was in a panel with people from Google, TikTok, Meta last year. It was uncanny. People were asking them simple questions like that and they were squirming and sweating as if being interrogated.

     @rysiek The filters are really robust. They never seemed to work on any other social network. But it’s nice to be able to really curate a feed.
