How do I use Muted Tags?
DeviantArt takes pride in being home to a wide variety of art, from the mainstream to the niche, but not all deviants are into the same things.
In an effort to give you a better experience and more control over what you see—and what you’d rather avoid—while browsing through DeviantArt, we’ve introduced Muted Tags!
You can now create a list of tags and topics you wish to be excluded and hidden from Browse and Search results.
Important note: This will not affect content on your watch and art posted on other deviants’ profiles.
To set up your Muted Tags list, follow these steps:
- Hover over your Profile avatar.
- Click Account Settings.
- Select Browsing.
- Under Muted Tags, start typing the tags you want to be excluded (you can choose from a pre-populated list). You can add up to 100 tags.
- Once you’re done, click Save. This can take up to 10 minutes to take effect.
