There are a variety of ways to filter content, ranging from blocking and muting accounts, blocking entire instances, and hiding posts based on text matches.
Account Filters #
On profiles of accounts you don’t follow you’ll see a Filter menu with options to mute, block, and report the account.
It’s a good idea to leave a note to yourself why you blocked or muted an account.
Blocking Accounts #
Blocking an account means you don’t want anything to do with them. You will not be able to see their activity and vica versa.
Muting Accounts #
Muting an account hides their content from you without letting them know. You can mute an account indefinitely or temporarily
Normally if you’re following an account that means you want to see their posts, but there are times may want to temporarily mute someone you follow, e.g. I follow someone who says it’s time for #monsterdon, better mute me for the next two hours if you don’t want to see the running commentary.
