Oddbean new post about login | logout Yeah, we are conflicted. You muted the quoted author, but you are following a person that wants to talk about it. So, we should the message from the follow but hide the inner message.
Ok but if I should mute everyone that reposts someone I muted every once in a while I end up with an empty TL
yep... I wouldn't muted all the others. Are all of the posts you are seeing quoting your muted post short? I ask because it's not uncommon to see bigger posts with a muted post in the middle. I have seen users asking to see the bigger post, because they didn't block that author, and just hide the inner post. Maybe we need a setting somewhere that muted override your follow preferences and mute everything else it touches.
