Hmm... now we just need to be able to limit what type of posts can show up in columns on advanced view.
Like posts only with no boosts
or media only for art feeds
Just copy tweetdeck wholesale and i'll be happy tbh 🤣
I saw one post saying that (assuming you think you do have Advanced View running) you need to go into Preferences, turn *off* Advanced View, turn Advanced View back *on*, and --> Save <--
Saving would seem not to need mentioning, but it was emphasized in the post I saw
HTH...

Oh huh! I hadn't realised that it *IS* possible to have an additional hashtag search column without actually following it. (Following the tag would clutter your normal Home timeline.) Do not click Follow for the tag but instead open Settings for the column and Pin it, then Settings again to add other tags if you want. An example I recorded:
#hashtag #search #mastodon #timeline #tutorial #AdvancedView #MastodonSearch #HashtagSearch #HashtagFollow #ColumnView #PinColumns
Strangely enough, as @Popehat raised the question, I realise I haven't seen any guide to using the #advancedView (multi-column) Mastodon web.
Have you?
I was intimidated by it at first and only started using it once a tinkering/playful mood struck me. It's quite useful, but the #UX surely needs work.
Waaaaah! I accidentally unpinned the Notifications column in the Mastodon advanced view instead of moving it and now I have no way to get it back!!!!! ?
?
For those trying to find out how to add extra columns and filters to Advanced Web View.
1) Filter for hashtag in the search bar
2) Click on the required tag
3) Expand the settings for the column
4) `Pin` the column
5) Click the ... in the new column
6) Customise the search for adding/removing extra tags.
