Some people write great #OriginalPosts but they #boost too much. For every OP, 100 boosts. These fill my Home and prevent 100 other posts from being shown.
I can follow the account and selectively #hide its boosts (not OPs) in my #Home. But the 100 boosts still count toward the #TimelineLimit of 400 (800) posts.
Idea: set up a separate account to follow heavy-boosters. That account's timeline shows me only OPs of heavy boosters. Anyone tried this?
#originalposts #boost #hide #home #timelinelimit
#Fedilab is a Mastodon #client on Android. Its developers keep bringing out new features that strengthen the tenets of #MastodonCulture.
Their most recent tool is a #cache for incoming posts on the #Home #timeline, storing them for a week. This bypasses the #TimelineLimit of #400posts.

As a user (no IT expert), let me see whether I can make sense of why this matters.
