Are you following an account that does good posts, but you don't want to see their boosts of other people's posts?

You can mute just an account's boosts without muting its own posts by doing the following:

1. Go to the profile of the account whose boosts you want to hide
2. Click on the ⋯ button on their profile
3. Select "Hide boosts"

(New people: "Boosts" are the name for shared posts on here. They mean the same as re-tweets or re-blogs.)

@FediTips@social.growyourown.services There are accounts where I would like to get notifications of their boosts in addition to their own posts. Am I missing a setting or is this a feature that Mastodon doesn't have (yet)?

As far as I know you can only be notified for their own posts (by clicking the bell icon). There's no boost notification.

@FediTips@social.growyourown.services I think that's a shame, but I'm not tech-savvy enough to make a note in the right place.
