OK, thank you. Where do I do that in Settings or Preferences or whatever? The github links are not helping much.
Had a better look now. I am extremely reluctant to run any code through my Mastodon account that I haven't vetted, so I was basically asking the wrong question of where these settings were to be found in the Mastodon code. But thanks for the suggestion.
