I wish I could turn off reposts for *select people* on my timeline. My mental health has taken a tumble and having depressing shit shoved into my face is just making it worse. But I don't want to *unfollow* said people, nor tell them they can't boost stuff that's important to them... I'm tired. - ThreadSky

I wish I could turn off reposts for *select people* on my timeline.

My mental health has taken a tumble and having depressing shit shoved into my face is just making it worse.

I'm tired.

You can mute them and it will stop showing what they repost. It’s not the best solution but it worked for me

Unfortunately, like unfollowing, that removes the content I actually want to see.
But for my own sanity it's probably the option I will take.

Then I just have to hope I don't ADHD forget to unmute them when I'm feeling better, lol

Having similar thoughts for a bit too long now... Yet I am forced to unfollow like I did back on twitter :(
Hopefully bsky will handle things better ...like they already do with other stuff :)

I'm sure they will have an option for that sooner than later. They are still building the platform

Fingers crossed

I think unfollowing is fine if there's no easy means to filter things. Like, mute exists but that's even worse.

If they make a big deal about the unfollowing... That's kinda odd. I imagine most people would understand the issue just fine.

I'd be unfollowing a lot of people whose actual content I want to see. Hah.
That's part of the issue.
