Mute and other vocal issues

If you're not already are aware of the #mute feature in Mastodon then it works wonders for your timeline.

Personally I start with a 7 day mute and go from there 🙂🤷‍♂️

One of my favorite features of Mastodon is the variable #mute. It means that if I don't want to see a hashtag topic, I can mute it for that day. Or if I'm mad at someone, I can mute them for an hour until I feel more reasonable. Or if I'm searching a topic and there's an account that has 5 million posts on it that are not what I want, I can mute that account for an hour and only see the other search results. And so forth.

Anyone else annoyed by the changes to mute and block that have occured on Mastodon?

I found a 6 hour mute useful when someone start filling my timeline with excessive posts. Just a little timeout for them so I can see what else other people are posting.

Maybe it's time to look at Bluesky.

You can #block #keywords (and phrases) in Mastodon and never see posts about crap you don't want to see posts about

Had a very tasty dessert, and now my attention turns to VENUS!

It's #Monsterdon or maybe this episode should be #aliendon? - should be fun though.

#mute me for a couple of hours if you don't want to see my inane banter. Mute the hashtag if you don't want to see my compatriots either. We don't mind, really.

I have to admit I generally enjoy slack. But in any community there are going to be assholes. One thing I dislike about Slack is the inability to #mute or #block people. Yes some of them utterly deserve it, and I don’t think I should have to tolerate their virtriol in the normal course of my day.

So instead I must manually stop myself from reading their words and absorbing their attitude. Because if I speak out about then I’m the jerk.

So exhausting. Be better, #Slack.

Is there a way to automatically mute accounts identified as being a bot? If not, I think that would be a great feature. That and automatic muting of accounts with posts predominantly not written in your native language. I wish I was multilingual but unfortunately I'm not. #mute #bots #posts #language

If you're not already following @feditips then please do so. The Tips are useful and will help, especially if you are new to Mastodon.

Please do find the Mute and Block features for those users or topics you're not interested in hearing from.

I usually #mute, but #blocking is fun too.

There's ever been anyone I've blocked that I've thought, 'I might be missing some good shit if I do this.'

How about you?

One of my favorite Mastodon features: temporary muting (5 minutes – 7 days).

Important option: Set “Hide notifications from this user?” to OFF if you still want to be notified when they reply to or favorite your posts.

Wish: a 28 days option
