@haubles Hello!
I'm still trying to get a grip of the fediverse and how it could be a bit less chaotic (for me).

I'm using standard mastodon.social web browser mode. I have two questions/suggestions of how to make the Feed more coherent.

1. Lists can include boosts from the users in the list.

2. Lists can include #tags as well as users

When I say "can" I'm thinking it could be a option like the "Hide members in Home"-option.

Do you have any suggestions for me how to move forward?

@gagagoogle Hey! I think you’re going to enjoy some of the changes our team is working on. :) in the meantime, have you looked at the deck view? It’s under advanced settings, look for “Enable advanced web interface.” It lets you pin multiple lists/hashtags so you can look at them all at once. You can pin your mentions, home, trending/local feed, etc. You can also choose to exclude lists you pin from your home feed, which turns it into an “everything else” feed. Let me know if this helps, or if there’s anything else I can do!

@haubles Thanks! But the "advanced" is not it. I don't mind having one thing at a time on screen. That's actually what I prefer.

I'm talking about having influence over different Feeds here, like multiple Home feeds, tailored for different interests. Like 1 Feed for Physics, 1 for FOSS and 1 for dogs!
Maybe the feature "Feeds" is a more accurate term. In "Feeds" one could merge selected Lists with selected followed #hashtags and enabling/disabling boosts

Is this what your team is working on?
