It’s intended to hide the category. When you mute a topic it’s no longer visible in the latest topic list, so this is a similar behavior for categories.

I believe the difference is latest vs featured. Mute hides categories and topics from latest topic lists, but not from featured topic lists.

I think your screenshot is of the “Categories with featured topics” layout? If so, then it’s similar to this previous request for mobile: [Allow hiding of muted topics from categories page on mobile - #6 by gerhard](https://meta.discourse.org/t/allow-hiding-of-muted-topics-from-categories-page-on-mobile/85613/6)

I don’t have much of an opinion on hiding vs showing muted categories, but it does feel like we should use the same behavior for both featured and latest.
