 It’s actually a good thing to mute users you don’t want to see. 
 I used to not do this in the name of free speech because everyone has something good to say at least every now and again, I have learned that's not true, in short, I agree. 
 some people are just obsessed with hatred, i’m okay with ignoring it. 
 100% agree 
 yep 
 I dunno, I'm okay with muting bots and non-English speakers, but I WANT to see everyone else. I'm tired of the personal weakness associated with browsing a bubble. I'm tired of being a coward. I don't care if I have to ignore a post manually/with my brain, it's better than leaving the decision about which posts go through up to the technology.

Crypto fanatics are a bit irritating though, I will admit that much. 
 I love my bubble actually, i get to cater my online life to be exactly what i wanna see, instead of torturing myself and waste time with things i know aren’t for me. 
 How do you fond yourself wasting time? How much time do you find yourself wasting?

And what exactly is so torturous? Seeing what people believe? Seeing things you can't yet articualate a response to? Seeing the 100th #gnostr post why isn't the keyword blacklist working dang it this sucks? 
 I really don’t give a fuck about what people believe. I like when people post photos of their beautiful life, and people who post pictures of food they made. I love when people post their favorite music, and their pets! I love seeing my friends, and family. 

I love life, I am happy! I love my bubble of positivity. 
 Then what is so torturous about seeing things that aren't exactly what you want to see? Or things that you believe "aren't for you"? 
 I just don’t want to. 
 Is that just your opinion then? Or would you be willing to argue with others about whether it's good for people to mute users who post unpleasant or negative things?

 If a platform didn't provide a way to do this then nobody would use the platform.
