Got it! Although I use hashtags for almost 20 years on social media, it makes sense I could be muted in the Fediverse. I also follow some topics via hashtags, and it can be annoying to have the same person popping up in my timeline.

It's a different dynamic than adding hashtags to my blog posts, where we used to add. I was used to adding it in order for helping the categorization of my articles, maybe improve the possibility to be better indexed by search engines and other people be able to find it. I remember even about the possibility of having an RSS feed for a specific tag.

I just created a thread related to my post earlier this morning, so it seems more polite to not add the same hashtags again on my following up posts.

In any case, if hashtags are not the proper way to classify a post, possibly it could be possible to add some meta tags automatically created to a post. If the idea of creating some recommended posts based on user interest is a desired feature.

P. S. not adding hashtags to this post intentionally.
