Problem: Boosts make it hard to keep up with authored toots in Lists #472

Open weex opened 1 year ago

I'm enjoying the use of Lists to interact with smaller groups of people however boosted toots are higher volume and often drown out toots authored by list members.

Proposed solution: Add a boosts toggle to the List view similar to the Home timeline.

Seems like a valid problem to me.

Semi-useful is the ability to hide boosts from individual users. This is a global setting however for a follow relationship so not a perfect solution.

The filtering of boosts on the home timeline is done client-side so as long as a setting can be saved locally a solution might come in a client like Toot or Pinafore.
