#hashtags

@FediTips yes!

And following hashtags is a great way to fill your timeline with nice surprises that are relevant to your interests.

Every app has a different method of following them, but here’s how it looks in the main UI (web and mobile).

Most apps have a comparable method.

Just click or tap on a hashtag and you’ll see this. And if you want to explore hashtags in your browser, just add the following to your instance domain:

/tags/TagName

#Hashtags #FediTips #Mastodon

In terms of how I operate on social media:

🗣️ I tend to post a lot 😅
🤬 …often with colorful language (but happy to edit it back out if it'll help you boost a useful post!)
🙄 I don't actually over-use emojis / #hashtags - just doing that here to be cute 🤣
💩 I love(d) #weird #twitter and occasionally make dumb shitposts 😒
and 👴 #dadjokes
My content is typically equal parts chatter about my #OSS, navelgazing/whining, and random microblogging/life observations (pets, house, tech, EVs)

#Welcome!

Here is some worthwhile #FediHelp for #Fediverse-#newbies #NewToMastodon:

9. Follow MANY and follow the #hashtags (!!!) that interest you, as there is no algorithm.

10. Follow @feditips

11. Follow back after vetting of #posts and #bios.

12. Post interesting #toots.

13. Always reply to serious answers.

14. Boost posts of (avid) followers but generally generously #AAB--#AlwaysBeBoosting.

I forgot that Threads developed its own tagging system outside of more common hashtags used elsewhere.

I remember the back and forth about it when they rolled it out, and personally not being that bothered by it.

Most of the time, tags are used within a sentence so it isn't noticeable. However when added to the end of a post like this example and pushed to the Fediverse, the result can seem confusing.

#Fediverse #SocialMedia #Hashtags #Threads

Fixed a bug that caused #hashtags attached to posts on #Hollo to be treated as regular links in #Misskey and other #Forkeys!

@index I assume #hashtags also aren't there yet?

Btw Mastodon is the best because folks actually use and follow hashtags. The posts attract people who are enthusiastic in things. In other places the hashtags feel pointless, nobody ever looks at them. They are just fuel for algorithms.

TIPS:
1. follow @FediTips
2. use #hashtags
3. follow lots - build your network
4. boost lots - you ARE the algorithm (& likes are private)
5. search #hashtags which interest YOU
6. scan people's profiles

8. stick with it - #fediverse is WHEY better than centralized corporate garbage 🧀

Hui. #sharkey ist schon anders als #firefish. Funktioniert die Suche nur bei mir nicht? Und wie kann man hier #hashtags folgen? 🤔

edit: Speicherplatz ist auf 100 MB beschränkt.

Closing the gap on fediverse hashtag visibility with hashtag-importer, a new rust tool to import #hashtags into your instance¹.

https://anisse.astier.eu/hashtag-importer-release.html

¹always ask your admin first

#mastodon #FediTools #FediTips #RustLang

Let's play a game, to help some of the newcomers make connections: name subjects and topics that interest you but aren't in your profile, as tags so they are searchable. Then boost this post or repeat its instructions so others know to do the same.
#introduction
Here are some of my pet #hashtags:

#coffee
#mysteries
#geocaching
#linux
#cooking
#wfmu
#books
#mindhacks
#silentfilms / #silentmovies
#snailmail / #letterwriting
#learningPython
#gopher
#dataprivacy
#ADHD
#fountainpens
#LCHF

Edit: this isn't a joke lol but only if we hit the goal. I enjoy the maximum silly streams but sometimes you gotta work for it.

If my Patreon hits $100 a month before October I'll get Horny-High and do a Smash or Pass stream of all Tattle Log enemies in Paper Mario Thousand Year Door remake. (it's already halfway there! $50 more to go)

I just figured out how to use @phanpy's "Catch Up" feature and it's even more awesome than I thought!

It starts by loading up all the posts in your #timeline up to some point in history.

Then it lets you filter and sort the timeline in various ways.

The cool part is you can filter by followed #hashtags and muted words as well!

And the whole time it breaks down the visible posts by user, so you can identify the noisiest users in you follow, or people who spam a #hashtag!

Related hashtags in the @pixelfed app are pretty handy for discovery 😎

#pixelfed #hashtags #discovery

a list of #hashtags for my #introduction

#technology / #computer #geek (#security pays the bills)
#music / #musician (#drummer for fun but not profit... learning other #instruments)
#weather (it's both awesome and scary)
#health / #fitness (however, will not turn down #chocolate)
#gaming newbie (#fantasian / #ffxiv occupy my time currently)
#anime (#SAO, #attackontitan, #psychopass, #RWBY, etc. etc.)
#DIY projects (if / as needed)

it's difficult writing #introductions 😅

If I ever post anything that you feel would be beneited by additional #hashtags feel free to add them as a reply #consent

Bon, j'ai finalement une liste des #hashtag hebdomadaires, j'ai compilé plusieurs vieux trucs, mes propres recherches, vos réponses, et j'ai vérifié ce qui était encore utilisé.
Mon but n'est pas de ressusciter des #hashtags !
(Et je n'ai pas mis ceux utilisés juste par 4 personnes en boucle !)

(D'ailleurs c'est drôle de voir qu’il y a des personnes qui essayent de lancer leur tag tous les jours ^^)
(ça ne prend pas !)

Bref, la liste !

Lundi :
#MondayMotivation : Tout ce qui peut vous motiver un lundi matin... je ne comprends pas pourquoi ce hashtag est autant utilisé du coup 😆
#MonochromeMonday : photos en monochrome, majoritairement en noir et blanc

Mardi :
#MardiConseil : principalement des conseils lecture, mais aussi de culture en général ou même d'autres thèmes !
#MardiPatisserie : vos plus belles pâtisseries que ce soit maison ou de boulangerie !
#ThickTrunkTuesday : pour voir des troncs d'arbre ! Écoutez, je pensais pas, mais c'est cool !
#TuesdayTiger : des tigres, des tigres, et encore des tigres, c'est vraiment cool !
#TuneTuesday : Pour partager sa musique. (On n’oublie pas qu'il y a d'autres hashtags pour ça, si vous ne voulez pas poster le mardi 😉 )
#TurtleTuesday : comme TuesdayTiger, mais avec des tortues ! Moins utilisé, mais j'aime beaucoup les tortues 😁

Mercredi :
#MercrediFiction : des mini récits de fiction, un peu un Writever du mercredi et sans thème !
#WipWednesday : pour montrer un travail en cours, souvent artistique/manuel, mais pas que
#WhiskersWednesday : vous voulez des frimousses d'animaux à moustaches ?! C'est par ici !
#WaterfallWednesday : de l'eau qui tombe, des cascades quoi ! C'est rafraîchissant par ce temps, on ne va pas se mentir !

Jeudi :
#JeudiManuscrit : récemment inventé par nos linguistes d'ici, des petits bouts d'écriture manuscrite !
#JeuJeudi : pour les jeux de société majoritairement !
#ThrowbackThursday : un petit tour dans votre passé !

Vendredi :
#VendrediLecture : pour partager vos lectures, bonnes ou mauvaises !
#FollowFriday : pour donner de la visibilité à des personnes que vous suivez ici
#FungiFriday : du champignon mignon !
#WindowFriday : principalement des vues jolies ou insolites à travers des fenêtres de tout genre ! Les photos sont vraiment belles pour le coup, ce n’est pas du "à l'arrache" ^^ !
#FlowerFriday : pour des fleurs, n'oubliez pas le #BloomScrolling les autres jours !

Samedi : les chats, rien que les chats !
#Chamedi et #Caturday pour mettre à l'honneur les rois et reines du monde !

Dimanche :
#SilentSunday : pour des paysages reposants
#SlowSunday : un peu pareil, mais avec aussi toute autre évocation de la lenteur qui fait du bien !

Voilà, faites-vous plaisir à suivre ces hashtags et à les alimenter !

(et moi je n’ai pas spécialement trouvé mon bonheur, mais je vais me débrouiller ^^)

If you want your post's hashtags to appear separately from your actual content when viewed through the website, put them right at the end of the post with a blank line just above them.

I've attached an image to this post so you can see the post's hashtags displayed below it if you're viewing through the web.

Apps will probably display the tags as normal.

(By the way, this is purely for aesthetic purposes. It makes no difference to how the hashtags function.)

#FediTips #Mastodon #Hashtags

In lieu of an actual #introduction, here are some #hashtags I’m interested in reading & posting about, in no particular order of importance
(Part 1)
#chicago #WestLoop is where I live, but have lived/might live in the future #Austin #Toronto #London #California #Rome #Amsterdam

#history #politics #language #poetry #science #astronomy #physics
#art especially #photography but also #painting #sculpture #film #filmHistory

#music #musicHistory #blues #jazz #reggae #BobDylan

#Hashtags for being found by: I'm a #treehugger, #bicycle commuter, #SoftwareDeveloper, #ApplicationSecurity enthusiast, and #Linux user. I love #reading #ScienceFiction but have to parse it out slowly.

I'm something of a #hippie -- I go #barefoot much of the time, I don't have a smartphone (#NoSmartphone?), I try to "Eat Food, #MostlyPlants, Not Too Much". And I have a deep respect and love of #nature and its systems, even the uncharismatic parts.

I think #FreeSpeech is super important, but that it comes with the responsibility to #BeKind to others in the process.

Welcome to #Mastodon!

Here are a few resources to get you started.

1. A great intro: https://wordsmith.social/elilla/a-futuristic-mastodon-introduction-for-2021

2. https://fedifinder.glitch.me/ finds #Twitter people you followed, on Mastodon! You can bulk-follow them.

3. Follow many people, from many different instances, to feed both your personal as well as your instance's federated timeline. It's easy to un-follow later. Use boost often.

4. Use #hashtags! There is no algorithm selecting "top posts" for you; instead, trends are built on hashtags.

Welcome to sfba.social!

If you are #new, here are some things you can do to get going:

1) write a bio for your profile, using #Hashtags

2) write post as an #introduction post, with your current interests.  Lots of #Hashtags there too!

3) Explore to find folks (you guessed it, #HashTags again!)

Be sure to read all three feeds:
-Local (sfba only, chronological)
-Home (people you follow) and
-Federated (people others in sfba follow)

Be nice and have fun!

I thought I had added #HashTags to my pachy #Profile. They're there now!

#UrbanNaturalist #UrbanGardening #WildlifeHabitat #NativePlants #Brooklyn #NYC #PhytoAgnosia #gay #queer #NewYorkCity #NewYork #Photography #Nature #Naturalist #Plants #Insects #Hymenoptera #Bees #Wasps #MacroPhotography #CatDad #iNaturalist #Flickr #Botany

(Most of them. Not enough characters allowed in the profile for all of them!)

In the interest of setting a good example, an #introduction of me.

This isn't my first Mastodon account (that was @[email protected]) but this (petrous.vislae.town) is my first run at being a Mastodon sysadmin.

I work with #Kubernetes #InformationSecurity in a #DevOps / #SystemReliabilityExternality way for a living. I used to work in #VideoGames doing #SystemsOperations & before that, #MobileTelephony. We don't talk about my stint in #AdvertisingTechnology.

I like #RolePlayingGames & #HashTags 😈

Meinung | Ehrlich?!? Ihr verseht jeden Scheiß mit einer Inhaltswarnung, aber beim Fußball schafft Ihr nicht mal einheitlich den Hashtag #Fußball zu nutzen!?!

Sorry wenn mir noch mal jemand was kommt von wegen Inhaltswarnung, dann bekommt er das nächste greifbare Tor um die Ohren geschlagen!

#Meinung #Fußball #EM #Inhaltswarnung #Hashtags #nervig #2024-07-05

For my own sanity and possibly yours in dealing with my stuff.

#hashtags I commonly use when posting beyond those in bio (some key ones repeated):
Note: #WIP

#WryComment #CanadianEh

#CrazyCanuckBBQ
#Carnivore
- various tags to identify possibly unwanted text/imagery in food preparation

#ResurrectedRecordPlayer
#NowPlaying #RandomMusic

#PhonePhotography

#reuse #recycle #OtherPeoplesGarbage
#PackRat

#MyHistory
- locations where appropriate

#WeAreTheWeird
#WeAreTheBlinky
#FreakFlag

Update: moved this to my new writing site so there’s a new URL.

Every hashtag on every post on every platform should ALWAYS be pascal case. I wrote this to illustrate how screenreaders read hashtags based on their case.

It’s a small thing that all of us can do to build a more inclusive, accessible internet for all. Please take the time to use pascal case.

#lauteshirn #hashtags

hi, i'm spv. call me spv, or james if you want to be slightly weird without knowing me

here's an #introduction post because i don't think i've made one yet.
info to know about me: 17 from BFE, NY

i'm #autistic, and have too many other conditions to list. woooo!

i do #programming on occasion
#homelab on the regular
i like to work with #security, but i don't do it enough

getting a degree in #Computer Security & #Forensics from SUNY Broome (starting in august)

warning: i use a lot of #hashtags

I almost chose the single user option on #Mastodon, but @erik snuck in before I could push the button. He was punished by being made a moderator. The dream is that a bunch of local STL people use my instance and we have a built-in #hyperlocal TL. No following or anything necessary.

I'm also good with no one showing up at all and I have a perfectly curated set of #hashtags

It's nice here.

Took all weekend, but finally got the desk sorted! I have the 32-bit corner, the current corner, and the 8-bit corner!

The nest of upscaler, KVM, and input selector cables is truly horrifying. But it all works!

We’re looking at moving into somewhere bigger soon, so we can have a proper “computer lab”. But super happy for this for now :’)

(And 16-bit stuff like an Amiga or Atari 1040ST would be incredible, but also no space right now!)

#retrocomputing #hashtags

#Newtomastodon? #Meetingpeople and #makingfriends are easy when you follow #hashtags as well as accounts. If a steady diet of #news is overwhelming (anxiety provoking, depressing), you may find following #bloomscrolling, #music, #gardening, #photography, #cooking, #bookstodon, #dogsofmastodon, #catsofmastodon, and refining topics for your specific interests, will transform the site into just your #cupoftea.
