Does anyone know if there is a way to follow a hashtag but filter off stuff that is included with the hashtag that you dont want to see?

For example I want to follow #taiwan, but 99.9% of the posts are actually about Ukraine. The account @SocraticEthics posts "Ukraine War Bulletins and News" which is fine, but they never have anything to do with Taiwan and it pollutes the feed. How can I follow #taiwan and exclude #ukraine ??

I have this problem when I follow a major newspaper and want to filter out sports, celebrities, and local weather. I haven't found a better way than muting words and phrases, which is very crude. One day I hope Mastodon lets us mute tags (analogous to following tags). And a bit further in the future, perhaps with AI assistance, I hope it lets us mute topics or concepts, not just the obvious keywords used for those topics or concepts..

Getting access to Nokia documentation on their HW/SW is fucking asinine. I bet they're violating GPL somehow... no mention of used software AT ALL. You really want me to believe you're not using any kind of open source software when the product page claims it supports running Linux Containers (LXC) ????

The great abandonment: what happens to the natural world when people disappear?

Across the globe, vast swathes of land are being left to be reclaimed by nature. To see what could be coming, look to Bulgaria. #ClimateChange

Kash Patel is an appalling figure in so many ways. The worst of rhe worst. He should not serve in government at any level.
Check out his series of children's books meant to indoctrinate kids into the Maga cult.
