Description
Some accounts boost many posts, flooding the home feed. I would like to see a filter that allows you to select individually for each account you follow whether you want to see replies, posts, or boosts.
The request could be related to this: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon-android/issues/972
It has already been suggested by someone on Mastodon: https://lustigetiernamenbubble.de/@Commander_KEEN/116028574784647701

Review the home-feed behavior and the related mastodon-android issue #972 before proposing an implementation. Clarify how per-account choices for replies, posts, and boosts should be configured and persisted, then define the expected feed results for each choice and test those cases.
