@news whomever runs the News bot, could you please stop boosting every single reply to every last post? I only want to see the initial News posts in my feed, not all of the replies.

Ahhh. See, I didn’t realize the “@news” I was following on Mastodon was actually a Lemmy group. I though it was specific to Mastodon, and expected it would be a news repeater/aggregator. Didn’t know it would also include all responses to the news posts.
It goes with a larger confusion on my part about how Mastodon works, I guess.
Adding, I found an option in my Mastodon client to hide boosts from my time line. Which solves my original problem. 🙂
Yeah, the way it works with groups is not great. There are news feeds on Mastodon which are probably a better option to follow from there.
