You do you...
However, when you boost all the things and my timeline gets clogged with all the boosts, then you get all the "hide this person's boosts."

Mastodon, I love you but you seriously need to fix the bug that prevents my home feed from loading because someone I follow went a little (a lot) boost happy.
I then have to enable boosts on the home feed to see who the serial booster is, then go and disable the boosts from their profile.
Many of us follow many accounts. This leads to a Home timeline that is very busy, especially if our Follows are heavy boosters.
The interface allows us to hide all boosts from Home, so that we only see original posts by our Follows. It's refreshing. There are no third-party posts and I can focus on the actual comments of my Follows.

"Also, if you feel someone you follow is #Boosting to much and cluttering your timeline, simply click the three dots (top right) on their home page and tap #HideBoosts. Much nicer than unfollowing."
TIL - thanks.
