#LiveTweeting seems to be a practice that is uncomfortable to some #Mastodon users, who curate their feeds to avoid noise. How do you feel about #LiveTooting of events as they unfold?
@LouisIngenthron other than muting a user, do you somehow just block a keyword, or how?
@worldsendless Muting users is the best. You can mute for a short period of time or indefinitely.
You can also set up filters on your account settings to remove it.
Or, just keep your live-tooting in a thread and make all but the first toot "unlisted". That way people can turn off replies in their Home and they'll only see the first in the thread.
@worldsendless use appropriate tags so people can filter. There's also temporary muting of users here, so people have options.
@worldsendless
I see it as a method of flooding timelines as a crappy way of personal brand advertising. It is a quick way to get me to unsub from someone.
The only exception is actual revelation. Posting like you are a play-by-play announcer is retarded.
@souldessin I have found value in others doing it when I am tuned in to the same program as them but I missed something. I am always glad when someone else caught it
@worldsendless It's fine. Some people will just choose to curate it out, and they have more than enough tools to do so.
