@the_roamer I don’t know the answer to that.
You can mute an individual’s boosts and only see what they post themselves, if that feature interests you.
Yes, one can mute boosts only, but the 400-count still includes all muted boosts, even if I don't see them.The posts that have been pushed out of my TL by those boosts are gone. I can find them only by actively visiting the profiles of the people I follow, eg through lists.
It's a design flaw. We can live with it, but we have to be aware of it.
Hence I am cautious with my own boosts, conscious that each of my boosts pushes out another post in each of my followers' timelines.
