How would you feel about Lemmy being able to pull in hashtags from the Fediverse? (lazysoci.al)

So you could subscribe communities to hashtags and have it displays toots and pictures from that hashtag in the Lemmy UI

Hashtags feel like a mastodon thing that don't belong here.

You don't think that pulling toots tagged with #politics into [email protected] could be useful?

  1. I don't know what a toot is. Is that just a Fediverse tweet?

  2. How would that impact moderation and rules? Ie, just because some random person tagged a post #politics doesn't mean it complies with the rules of that lemmy community.

I come here for links, not micro blog posts by random people.

  1. Yep
  2. People from mastodon can post to Lemmy already
  3. You'd be surprised about how many people complain about links, they don't wanna watch videos, most articles are too long and they only ever read the headline.
