Pitch

Simply put, I'd like to be able to ignore bot/automated accounts. My "home" (who I follow) aren't bots. However when I go to Federated (firehose), I see obvious bots after bots. Most of them are reported on their account as "bot" or "automated". I would like the option to ignore them, without having to actively block each account.

Mastodon accounts have this data built in to the account. So this is just requesting a toggle to use said setting.

Motivation

Why would I do this? If you look at the Federated/firehose, on all the bot accounts, you'll see no engagements of either comments, favorites, or retoots. They clog up real human discourse. And I'd rather ignore them rather than have to keep scrolling to find real humans.
