@davep Yeah, it doesn’t quite work in practice, though, and filters don’t seem to be applied to app feeds at all.

@nullifidian Ahh, yeah, some apps do seem to do it odd. At least in IceCubes and Mona I see zero evidence of filtered posts (IIRC it was a feed option in IceCubes).

Pretty sure the web UI just hides them too (or perhaps an option there as well?)

@davep Not seen any IceCubes filtering options, despite looking.

There is an option to “drop” filtered toots, but I don’t like that kind of unrecoverable destructive behaviour—I would rather it was just hidden completely from the feed entirely, and unhidden should I later decide to rescind the filter. I don’t need to know each toot was “Filtered”, or at least show a single “Filtered (#{count} toots)” entry.

@nullifidian Ahh, perhaps I’m misremembering. I am fairly final about filtering: if I made a filter I take a “never want to see it” approach. 😏

So perhaps I’m thinking about a core setting and that’s why I never see the filter indicator. I take the ignorance is bliss route.

@davep I’m fine with blocking/ignoring accounts that I can’t be arsed with, but seems the “don’t show a toot” weapons are limited to either “be annoyed by saying it exists even if you don’t want to see it” or “go nuclear”.
