Pro-tip: you can hide another user's boosts.

Also: if you don't like what I post or boost, you do have the freedom to mute, unfollow or even block me 🤷‍♀️

@annaDr. Anna Latour Also the way @phanpy handles boosts is pretty awesome. Grouping them together in blocks so you can easily ignore them or interact with them as you desire.
