Is there really no way to just tell mastodon "please remove this single post from my home column but don't block or mute or unfollow the person"

@Felthry quick fix: paste enough text from it into the filter line

@noiob because there are certain custom emoji people use a lot that I find really off-putting and would really like to just block completely

@Felthry I don't know, you can try filtering the name of the emoji with or without the :s

anything in particular? I blocked the verified and promoted ones on awoo already

@noiob it's nothing that I think should be instance-level blocked, they're just face components that people put together into faces that I find somehow deeply offputting

Follow

@Felthry ah, okay

I'm not sure how custom emoji actually show up in the toot text the filter scans for strings of text

@noiob @Felthry It might work if you filter the shortcode for the emoji possibly?? I haven't tried it out myself

@noiob @Nine unfortunately I only use the web interface and switching over is more trouble than it's worth
