Is it possible to hide certain tags?

Is it possible to hide certain tags here in Dev.to from a feed?

There are certain tags for which I have no interest and nothing to add to at this time (e.g. #css) and it would be helpful to have them filtered from my feed.

In your dashboard (dev.to/dashboard/following) you can add weights to tags you like to see more posts with those tags, or set negative values to tags for posts you want to see less. We currently don't have a way to completely hide tags yet.

Yes, counterintuitively, follow and then negative values will do it.

(We'd like to make this process a bit more intuitive but it is a "negative follow" under the hood.
