I have been struggling with a new issue since I started following hashtags. Previously, when I would see a Bad Toot, it was because I had chosen to follow that account (nota bene: do not make Bad Toots, please). Some Bad Toots are boosts, and I could disable boosts from the Bad Booster. Now, I see Bad Toots that I did not ask for and the tooter did not take any *specific* action to place in front of me. Yet, they are Bad, and I must decide what to do.
