Very useful Mastodon tip: if you want to follow an account or bot that posts a lot and you don't want it to appear in your main timeline:
Create a list and add the account(s) in question and
1️⃣ In the Mastodon web app go to the list section
2️⃣ Select the list and at the top right of the list go to settings
3️⃣ Activate the option to hide posts.
