If you speak about the #homefeed (or how it's called), I remember seeing a #setting that said something like “show button instead of jumping to new content” before the last #Mastodon #update. But now, I don't find it any more.
Was it moved, removed, or I'm just missing it?
I need help. I’ve been away from Mastodon a few days, and when I came back, my home feed is longer showing posts from followed hashtags. Only posts from my followed users appear now.
I can’t find anything in the settings to fix this. Whatever it is, I need an answer, as my feed feels desolate without new posts to discover.
Then again, who knows if anyone will hear this plea if non-followed users can’t see this post.

Within the past week, at least twice I've seen, in my #HomeFeed, posts from an account I don't follow, not showing as boosted by anyone I follow, and containing no hashtags I follow (I've methodically checked all hashtags in case I forgot following or errantly followed any).
They show up both in the Mastodon web interface and the Mastodon mobile app. Interestingly, in the 2 recent cases they were posts from the same account. (I saw this once before shortly after I arrived here with a post from a different account so it's not unique to a single account, and yet...) Only mildly annoying but I really want to figure out how this happens!
To avoid social media burnout, I strictly follow #technology-heavy hashtags and accounts in #Fediverse (esp #Mastodon.)
Today a #toot about religion ended up in my #HomeFeed.
I checked very carefully to see if accidentally contains any keyword/hashtag I'm listening on: it, obviously, did NOT.
Assuming there are no recommendation algorithms, how could that happen!?
Have you experienced such a thing before? Or was it just an unfortunate one-off glitch?
