You must be the change you wish to see!
I generally agree with this sentiment completely, but in this case the solution is beyond what I, as a single user, can achieve.
I'm wondering whether the hashtag ranking system could be filtered and tweaked to make the topics more varied and less boring.
Based on all the comments though, the reason seems to be baked into Mastodon's design
It seems to be a clash of what two groups of users want since a few seem to be happy with how Mastodon does it.
