A screenshot of a toot describing unpleasant world news in words.

I don't understand why #snac has placed this toot in my "private" timeline (i.e. /username/admin). I don't follow the boosting account, and I don't follow any of the hashtags.

This isn't a question about blocking those specific hashtags or people - I know how to do that if I want. I'm trying to figure out how to drive snac so that I don't get unwanted toots thrust in my face that I didn't ask for. What am I missing?
