October 2025: Delivered a focused UX enhancement in mastodon/mastodon by gating the Mute Hashtag option based on authentication. This change hides the mute option from unauthenticated users, preventing futile actions and clarifying user flows for new and guest users. The implementation was captured in a single commit that updates the hashtag dropdown UI: Do not display mute button in hashtag dropdown when unauthenticated (#36353). This aligns with security and onboarding goals, reduces noise, and lays groundwork for further per-user feature gating.
