Gregory's Server@darius let me think about it a bit, when I read the wiki link I liked the 'friends' concept. that is what clicked for me, before that I couldn't figure out what was 'exclusive'. 'friends' is the key takeaway here, something personal. I will try to think of something.

@darius any chance instead of a bool it can be a numbered list or an dictionary type object with names. Like labels?  @darius I like the what its doing, but could see it being done in many different sub-feeds. Like I could filter by topic and have topic feeds. Many users tend to be very focused. So maybe one for 'tech' and one for 'politics' or 'news' or what have you. Then the 'exclusive' concept is extended for use cases defined by the user. @d3cline Oh: that is too complicated. I thought about doing that and decided against it. Someone who is not me is welcome to implement the feature you describe @darius I would keep pushing what you got then, it seems like it could be helpful and a stop-gap to the more complex version of the feature. @darius and the removing them from the home feed means I can add more content there and do more filtering etc, it acts somewhat like a queue after that. @darius @d3cline whatever it gets called I’ve been wanting this feature ever since joining the mastodon fun. There are a good few accounts I’d like to have in a list to check in on now and then but I really want muted in my main feed. I know I could follow them by rss instead but doesn’t make sense doing so outside of mastodon if it can be helped. |
@d3cline Yeah. The thing is it's not about friends necessarily -- I also use it as kind of a quarantine zone for accounts that post too often but I still want to follow occasionally.
