If someone you follow boosts too much stuff, you can hide just their boosts from your timeline by doing the following:

1. Go to the person's profile in Mastodon
2. Click the button with three dots (looks like ︙ or ⋯)
3. Click "Hide Boosts" or "Hide Reblogs" (they mean the same thing)

The person will not know you've done this, and it won't hide their own posts.

If you change your mind and want to see their boosts, repeat the same process but select "Show boosts".

#FediTips #Mastodon

Who owns Mastodon and the Fediverse? There is no single owner, it's a network of thousands of independent owners.

Mastodon and the Fediverse are made up of thousands of independent servers connecting to form a single social network. Think of it like email or phone providers: a single network made up of many different providers with different owners.

Servers on here are independent at every level, from technical to legal, with their own admins in charge.
