For me, one advantage of Mastodon is the ability to follow particular hashtags and for them to show up in my feed, even when I don’t follow the person who posted something using that hashtag. I follow a lot of creative types on there - music folk, writers, artists.
As a corollary, being able to mute particular hashtags is also very welcome!
Mastodon does have a very good muting ability. I like that one can choose what feeds are affected by each word filter. It would be really helpful on Lemmy too.
