I'm grateful for the recent changes in the moderation of Hashtags via Mastodon but I really wished it had a "filter" option in the dropdown, like "add to new or existing filter", mute hashtag, etc. Now that sports season is back and there are a thousand and one teams and more people are active, using team and game specific hashtags, it's gonna be hard to chase, esp when people don't use universal sport hashtags like #Football #Soccer #baseball #Rugby, etc along with their team or game specific tags. It is exciting to see sports growing in the Fediverse, though. #Mastodon #dev #MastoDev
