How to hide a tag on dev.to

#meta

Follow a tag describing something you don't actually want to follow, like the #javascript tag (trust me please),
Click on the not-so cranked wheel to go to the page that handles the weights of your tags (here's the link: https://dev.to/dashboard/following_tags),
Set the weight of the tag you didn't like to -999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999 or something like this,
Enjoy browsing dev.to without this popular tags on literally every page of the site!

(oh the output of the value in step 3 is funny, it even have a "anti follow" notice)

Hey! So what's with the javascript tag? :)

Oh nothing really "bad", but I don't use javascript on my everyday life, on my work, and I'm not really interested by it.

So I don't really want to see a really big list of js-related articles on dev.to (I tend to prefer Django-related stuff, but it's not as popular as js).
