Each time i look in again on my still-newish account, hoping to see some of the disappointing bugs resolved, i'm very quickly saddened again by apparently irrelevant toots appearing in my . The picture shows a typical example. I do NOT follow those tags, so why is this toot here in my Antenna?

Then, i wondered if maybe, all this time, i might be fundamentally misunderstanding how to properly use Antennae for following tags. The closest tag i
do follow, & whose toots i absolutely do want in this t/l, is ... by which my intention was that full word, but only that full word, not also that word as part of a longer tag. This pictured toot, firefish.social/notes/9hy57g0wn9nfkh0x, does otoh include tag . Is Firefish's Antenna algorithm looking for all occurrences of my tag, even if only a fragment of a longer tag? If so, how can i stop it doing that, & make it only search for my literal tags as-is?

Btw, apologies to Vince -- i'm not trying to be mean to your fine toot; tis just a good example of how my Antenna is either incorrectly functioning, or instead my erroneous usage of it. Your toot is
lovely, i'm sure! ๐Ÿค—

@MsDropbear42 If you want to limit the search to the exact term you specify, you have to put that term between double quote signs.

For example, if you want to catch posts with occurrences of linux, but not Archlinux, instead of
linux
you have to use:
"linux"
