Would love a #mastodon pro to explain to me how to use the #federatedtimeline because I just don't get it. I open that thing and it's like super speedy scrolling and so much stuff is kinda not my thing like a bunch of young anime girls?
i just keep that timeline closed but surely it must be intended for some particular use....
@logan_life Mute any instance or user that doesn't appeal to you. Keep doing that and the timeline will slow dramatically.
@LeftCoast wait, i can mute entire instances?
@logan_life Oh yeah! Open a user's profile, then click on the pancake stack. The bottom option is to mute that user's entire instance.
So, if I'm from silly.teenage.party and that's not something you want to see, just mute the instance. It's a beautiful feature!
@logan_life You're very welcome. Without that feature I would have given up on Mastodon long ago!
@LeftCoast Amazing! I had no idea! Thanks so much. =)
