do you mute more accounts than you follow on X?

my feed gets much better when i remove posts i don't want to see do you regularly mute accounts or do you just scroll past their posts?

At this point, muting accounts is part of my daily routine . If I have to keep scrolling past someone's posts every single day, I rather save myself the stress and mute them.

i mute more than i follow, but muted words cut more junk than muting accounts, a handful of giveaway and thread bait keywords cleared half my feed, do you use keyword mutes or only accounts

I generally turn off notifications that don't interest me, and if I feel something isn't right for me, I delete it so it no longer appears.

We mostly just mute annoying accounts when they keep spamming the same stuff, otherwise we just leave them alone lol

Totally agree, mute them and get peace of mind.

I think muting is underrated. If an account keeps posting things I’m not interested in, I’d rather mute it than unfollow and create unnecessary friction. It keeps the feed relevant without making a big deal out of it.

Yes, of course I mute a lot of accounts too. I don't think just scrolling past them is any good because the algorithm doesn't know that you didn't like the content. It keeps showing the same content over and over again. Since I started muting regularly, my feed has become much cleaner and better. I only see things that are really useful. I usually ignore the posts I don't like, but if an account shares it over and over again, I mute it. That way I get to see useful content.
