Ohh I see. The main filter is by follows, if you open a note to see the replies than it will be from everybody because we don't have the filter up top on that thread screen.

Exactly .. it is a misnomer .. when you say all follows - the user expectation is - " all from (only) everyone I follow " ... I think it should be fixed ..
Saying that , cuz if "all follows " behaves as expected - then I wouldn't see spam ..
Btw that is the behaviour when I chose "all follows " in notifications.. so ..
The issue is that every screen has a separate settings at the top. You can be looking at All Follows at home, but Global in Notifications, and a user list on Discovery. Threads just haven't adopted that language yet.
Yes ..agree .. I should be allowed to see global in notifications and say "muted" in my home - but the definitions should be same across all screens
All follows - in home should mean same as "all follows " in notifications .. isn't it ?
As of now - the meaning of " all follows " in notifications screen is perfect .. but on home it means - notes from all follows but replies from everyone " - that is inconsistent..
And the reason I am stressing on this cuz if all follows in home behaves exactly like it does in notifications..than I can get rid of spam ( reply guy :-) ..
I will still see spam in global ..or mute ..but that is fine ..
I am confused. The Conversations tab in the home screen should only show replies from people you follow. But if you enter a thread (which you can also enter from notifications), that always Global today.
