#HashTagGames folks, I have a small request. Put the two hashtags at the bottom of your post, on a single line by themselves. Mastodon improves the display of them.

@angrybooklady You should be okay as long as they’re not stupid questions about Linux, those will summon the bees.
Welcome! Discover over here is very hashtag-driven since there’s no algorithm, so a lot of people make an introduction post with hashtags of all the stuff they’re likely to post about. You can also follow hashtags and everything posted about that subject will show up in your home feed. But Mastodon is pretty popular with people using screen readers, so if you add a line break at the end of your post and then add all the hashtags at the end, it’ll show up in a tidy, not-obnoxious way:

@[email protected] I see.

#like-this
before? because if so yeah that's a big improvement -
oh, probably not.
small is supposed to only be there for when we're using tags, which are wrapped in small tags

CW: 🧵 Guide for new fedi users (brief-ish)

@NefariousAryq The way they display on the first image is due to two different things from what I recall:
- You're reading from a recent version of Mastodon (can't find the exact version right now, sorry)
- The hashtags must be written at the end of the message, separated from the rest by a blank line.
#NotLikeThisbut

@forteller @chrismessina it’s a nice idea but in terms of formatting my preference would be a # at the end #LikeThis# (rather than using two different characters) or double-up ##hashtag
-
@ajfunk27 the tag introduction only, that one people in mastodon they search it haha
#like-this #introduction -
making hashtags camelcase #LikeThis makes them actually-readable and also readable to peeps using screenreaders
you have legiterally no reason not to
...and yet the mastodon software always tries to default complete hashtags in all-lowercase lmao

👍 Die Bitte von Josh the Mod @Josh auf Deutsch:
Eine freundliche Erinnerung an Leute, die #NeuHier bei #Mastodon sind. Aus Solidarität mit den Behinderten, die auf Bildschirmlesegeräte angewiesen sind, bitten wir dich:
* Füge Alt-Text / #Bildbeschreibungen hinzu,wenn du Medien postest.
* Schreibe den 1. Buchstaben von jedem Wort in einem #Hashtag groß: #LikeThis
[deutsches Beispiel #NeuHier ]#Bildbeschreibung #Barrierefreiheit #Behinderung #Solidarität #StrongerTogether #FediTips #FediTipps

I keep seeing people emphasise the benefits of writing hashtags #LikeThis with capitalised words. Although it keeps being referred to as camel case, instead of pascal case. And I want to let them know, but it also seems pretty rude. 🙃

@BookerTalk You can follow hastags you are interested in.
Using hastags in your own posts helps others find you. Use #CamelCase (capitalise first letter of words in hashtag) #LikeThis
Remember to #AltTag images.
Boost (share/retweet) posts you find interesting.
You can edit posts.
@elk is a useful web interface to use. There are various apps to choose from too.

Apparently, there is a new #TwitterExodus wave.
In case you see this, new friend:
1. YOU are the algorithm. Follow, like, boost, and participate.
2. When uploading a picture, please add descriptive #AltText
3. Write hashtags with a capital letter for each word #LikeThis
4. Consider using the content warning feature more often than you would on other sites.
5. Don't be a dick.Hi everyone! :ablobcatrainbow:

Capitalise the first letter of each word in hashtags #LikeThis
This makes hashtags able to be picked up by screen readers

CW: Hello to all of you new folks. Here are some tips to help you out. These are mostly things I needed to learn when I started using the web interface on Mastodon. #Tips #Welcome #Intro
Local is for the instance ( instance / and the people you follow),
Home is for the ppl you follow and your DMs will show there too.
Federated is everything, everywhere, all at once (firehose, chaos, hard to read, interesting to watch).
Boost means you want to share content to your followers.
Favorites do not automatically boost the message, and generally exist to show the author that you appreciate what they've written.
You can add .rss to a person's profile, or to a hashtag, and generate a feed. However, lists can only include people that you follow. I've given up on lists, and use RSS for custom follows.
Hashtags are how you find things, there is no algorithm on here. So add hashtags to everything when it makes sense. Don't over do it though.
Full-text searching is a thing, but it doesn't always get you the results you need. Hashtags do.
Try and remember to use capital letters - #LikeThis - for each word in the hashtag. It helps screen readers.
Add images whenever you like, try and remember to add alt text to them, so everyone can experience them.
You can edit posts.
You can use content warnings to censor posts. Some people will demand that you do this, the choice is yours though.
You can mute certain words.
People can also bypass those muted words with v@riations of w*rds.
There are lots of groups, and shared interests. Use hashtags to find them.
Mastodon is what you make of it. Have fun, explore.
