Follow
Handy Mastodon feature I noticed today, other newbies might find useful: you can go to someone's profile and "hide boosts" from them (click on the three dots right of Follow).
Ie, if you want to keep following someone's own toots but think they boost too much random stuff.
@jroper That's super useful; thanks. I've been noticing that boosts seem to evade my word filters I have set up. This will help me manage that.
the irony that this is now my most boosted post, is not lost on me
