Tag muffling is an excellent feature for self-moderation and safety but is currently essentially nonfunctional, given Cohost's tag behavior: sharing a post strips the tags off it, so if you have a tag muffled, and someone you follow shares a post that you would like to see muffled, it will not be muffled.
It should either look at the tags of the original post when deciding whether to muffle a share of it, or shares should inherit the tags (but hidden, and without entering them into the tag feed for those tags).
