What does "mute conversation" do when you do it to your own post? Can others still do their thing with it - commenting and sharing and such?

I've never done it, but one of my posts is going fedi "viral" and it is getting a bit overwhelming. (^_^)*

@hiisikoloart mainly it just stops giving you notifications about it. i haven't done it for a while and can't remember if it will hide the thread from you, but i guess not. other people can interact with it just as before

@hiisikoloart It hides the post and any replies from your notifications, but doesn't otherwise alter the post or responses.

I had to mute one of mine because I was getting replyguys on it. A small infestation, but irritating nonetheless.

@realtegan
Okay, good. I think I need to mute it because it is getting very overwhelming and people ask a lot of same things and the repeat replies get tiring. (^_^)*

I appreciate your reply a lot. Have a wonderful day!
