@drewphish do you have the "Conversations" context set on your filters? the docs say that should include threads https://docs.joinmastodon.org/user/moderating/#filter-context

@clifff You are a life saver! Did not have that box checked and now that should be good. Now I just have to mute the people who routinely talk about the same things without the generosity of using a hashtag (which I try to do for the things I post about a lot) and then my timeline will be usable again. Thank you, sir!

@drewphish @clifff I’m definitely guilty of this the past few days. Been good using the hashtag in initial posts, but sometimes when replying I forget. Definitely part of the learning curve here.

@Nolasox @clifff I don't get mad (even quietly to myself) at people who don't use hashtags, but I am very proactive about keeping communication tools usable for myself because otherwise I just end up not using them without even realizing it.

@Phreba @drewphish @Nolasox to be clear - if a filter is using the "Conversation" context, it also excludes replies. I don't think there is any compelling reason to add hashtags when replying to a post that has them

@clifff @drewphish @Nolasox thanks for the clarification
