I’m getting posts from people I don’t follow. Anyone else? Also, how do I stop them, please?

@AliPalk, if you don't want to see the boosted/reshared posts of the people you follow, you can go to the people you follow's profiles, click the "..." button at the top, and choose "Hide boosts from @...". Then you'll only see their posts, but not posts that they boost/reshare.

@Halfdan they’re not tooted from people I follow, just random posts

@AliPalk, they are probably boosted, by tooted, by the people you follow. That should be the only way posts from people you don't follow should be able to show up in your home stream.

@AliPalk It sounds like you're getting a lot of posts your followers boost. With a lot of followers I've hidden a lot of people's boosts, that declutters my feed quite a bit.

@AliPalk if they're not boosts from people you follow, do they include a hashtag you have followed? If you follow a hashtag any post with it that your server can see will appear in your home timeline.
