@ExecutiveFunction404 it's a boosted message from another user, I would normally not mind but X creeps me out so much and it's unfortunately top on my feed xP I wonder if I can mute the original poster so I can still see possible new messages from the person I follow?

@Zolah

I believe muting works like that, but I'm not sure bc I rarely use it (and usually forget when I do anyway loll. You'd mute/block the person who posted the original post that you keep seeing. You can put a time limit on it also, so if you forget to undo it, it does it for you. One second, I'll find it on the app for you 😊

@Zolah

I was mistaken the time limit is for the filters. The filters don't work for this specific thing? Can you choose an unpopular word from the post to use as a filter?

If not, you can open any post from said person, click on the three dot menu on the bottom right (green in ss), which will pull up the block/mute/report features (pink). If you choose mute and allow notifications (it says something else), you won't see anything from them until they mention your handle.

@ExecutiveFunction404 unfortunately the tags are not related to X, or can you tag any word even if its not # ?

This is just an example, imagine an aquarium and the poster only tagged aquarium but the thing that's bothering me is the eels on the image. So it's pretty innocent but just unfortunate

Thank you BTW for helping out , it warms ^^

@Zolah

Yes, filters work on words, not just hashtags (thankfully!). Not everyone uses hashtags. I'm certainly quite guilty of it myself.

You're sincerely welcome! ❤️

Hashtags keep you connected. Filters keep you sane 😂

@ExecutiveFunction404 that worked ! TY!!!

@Zolah
You can unmute ppl manually any time. Try muting the offending acct, then maybe in a week or whenever you think of it, look at your mutes (https://counter.social/web/mutes) & remove anyone you feel like giving another shot. Some ppl regularly unmute/ unblock everyone just to give others another chance.

If you create a filter, you can set it to expire, & no, it does not require the use of a #. Just use the word. But be careful about the whole/ partial setting.

@FernLovebond @ExecutiveFunction404
Thank you ^^ I try to avoid muting in that manner since my adhd pretty much has a " out of sight, out of mind ". So it could become a permanent ban by mistake >_<

@Zolah @ExecutiveFunction404
You can choose any word to filter, the word doesn't have to be used in a hashtag.

You can mute the original poster if you like too.

@ExecutiveFunction404 i can't find how to mute for a limited time on my phone, it's either mute or not xP
