Little tip for people using Mastodon's multicolumn advanced web interface:

You can extend the number of columns by clicking the slider icon in the top right corner of a column and selecting "pin".

There is no slider icon on profiles BUT you can pin particular accounts:

1. Create a new list
2. Add the account you want to the list
3. Pin the list

You will then have a column pinned which only contains posts by that account (and of course you can add more accounts to that list if you want).

@feditips In my Advanced Web Interface there is an eye-icon at the upper right. If I hover, It shows "Show less for all," and if I click it, it then shows "Show more for all." It is unclear whether the displayed text describes the current state or the state that results after clicking.

Plus what does it mean?

Perhaps you can link to an explanation.

As a regular user of the advanced user interface who has created new columns in the past, I found it extrememly confusing and difficult to remember how to create one again.

This was helpful.
