As far as ActivityPub posts are concerned, how are Hashtags handled? Is it just like normal and we add them in the posts?
minus-squarejulian@community.nodebb.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up1·5 days ago@CWSmith hashtags in NodeBB are only relevant at the topic level — that’s just how it was designed years ago. You’ll note that on microblogs, tags can be added on any post. While we show them, we don’t consume or index them unless they are the original post. When you use tags in NodeBB, they are federated outward with the original post. Hope that helps!
minus-squareCWSmith@community.nodebb.orgOPlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·3 days ago@julian Thanks, tells me what I needed to know. Even on Mastodon I only really use Hashtags on posts and not on replies so that tracks for personal usage.
