If you're using Mastodon on a computer, there's an optional "advanced" mode available on your server's website.

By default Mastodon uses a simple single column, but advanced mode is a Tweetdeck-style multicolumn interface that lets you add as many columns as you want. This includes special pinned hashtag feeds where you can combine, require or exclude particular tags within a single feed.

@feditips Is there a way to mute hashtags instead of following them? That would be very helpful but I can't seem to find a way to do it.

@feditips If you're on an Advanced Mode server, is there a way for heathens like me to go into single column mode?

I'd moved over to Elk (which is nice) because I didn't realize the multi-columns were an optional thing.

@feditips I must have been made with other material.😁
I used it from beginning, all stuff
visible at once, Tweetdeck kind.

Same as original would be nice it can handle more columns, customized searches, maybe multiple accounts..things to think in a long-time future.
Just couple ideas flipped on air...

@feditips See, I like this in theory, but the columns are all super narrow like that. I don't need half a dozen narrow little columns. I need 2 or 3 wider ones, and that seems not to be an option. Frustrating.

I've never used the pinned hashtags feed.

Sounds interesting. A timeline all by itself. πŸ‘

I'll have a play.

@feditips I use this to create a column of posts from my list of close friends. That way, I don't miss their toots in amongst all the noise of my main newsfeed.

@feditips When my 14 year old son saw this UI for the first time he said it "looks like a better Twitter."

@feditips TIL Mastodon has a single column mode! I think I might have signed up back when it only had multicolumn, and my account defaulted to that as a result.

@feditips loving it! You can pin lists as well. I used to use tweetdeck in a former life, so this is like coming home!😍

@feditips It's great. it's like Tweetdeck, columns and multiple read and react choices. And set the SLOW mode for full control

@feditips Adding columns appears to require hashtags. I'd like to add a column of an instance, but haven't found a way to do that.

@feditips wish I could have one home column unfiltered and one with boosts removed but the filter seems to affect both together.
