One of the things that's been bugging me as my #Mastodon consumption grows is that I see the same "Boost"'d posts over and over again.Mastodon has an option to suppress these ("Group boosts in timelines"), but it works by looking at your timeline and seeing if the post is in the last 40 items you've seen; so if it's 41st, it reappears for you.Well, not anymore on yyc.bike -- now it looks at the last 400 items on your feed. 😉#nixos #opensource #mastoadmin

If you're not the administrator of your Mastodon instance, the next-best option I had come up with is to use "Filter this post" and then put it into a filter named something like "Seen Specific Post Too Many Times". This disappears it from your timeline.But it's pretty manual and repetitive.

I have made the bold choice to buy a new TV... from Leon's. Classically a Canadian furniture store, not electronics, but they're the only store I could find that can deliver the target TV this week. Other stores were out-of-stock or targeting February 5th.After placing the order online, I received a call 15 minutes later, confirming the order, informing me of the delivery window. Great. Maybe furniture delivery expertise is a good fit for large electronics. 🤔

@gnomon A Samsung 65" S95F. I'm pretty excited for it, QD-OLED. It's a 9 yr bump in technology for our main living room, and the Vizio it's replacing has started crashing and restarting... so it should be a great choice for not doing that, and looking good while not doing it.
