Yes, it does, mute is a bit overkill".

Does this setting not exist anymore?:

“ **Suppress category from latest topics** ”

It seems that would be easier?

I found this discussion also:

> [@Suppress category from latest topics gone](https://meta.discourse.org/t/suppress-category-from-latest-topics-gone/133894/101):

I feel a bit silly now to say on [https://community.hiveeyes.org/](https://community.hiveeyes.org/), even after activating the plugin within settings, we don’t see the option at the place within the category settings where it was before: Did we miss something here or might there be something wrong with our instance of Discourse? We are running 2.4.0.beta8.

and this additional plugin:

> **[GitHub - communiteq/discourse-suppress-category-from-latest](https://github.com/communiteq/discourse-suppress-category-from-latest)**
>
> Contribute to communiteq/discourse-suppress-category-from-latest development by creating an account on GitHub.

Will try this one:

> **[GitHub - discourse/discourse-categories-suppressed](https://github.com/discourse/discourse-categories-suppressed)**
>
> Contribute to discourse/discourse-categories-suppressed development by creating an account on GitHub.
