I kinda liked (and used!) #TagsPub when it was #OptIn tbh but the #notifications are annoying either way... what if I silence the instance?

Ok yeah, that actually works pretty well. Now make that shit opt-in again (or at least proactively fucking ask before assuming consent or something?) and it might have a future.

@evan from all bots, which I don't want to do. Muting the instance seems to work well and I can see the bots I follow anyway. Should probably be the recommended server-wide solution, unless it actually breaks things in a way I don't realize.

@evan I meant "limiting" the federation. That does keep all the followed accounts and all of the boosting working, right? While not bothering the users.

@virtulis will it let users follow new tags?

@virtulis ok, I'm going to test it out with my personal server. If that works, it would be a really nice option for server admins.

@evan yes, searching for the "user" and following works, at least on current-ish glitch-soc. I'm sure there are people who can answer this with more confidence though, and for software other than Mastodon.
