I am seeing more use of the #fediverse and #mastodon in my local area and hope to see it grow.
Sorting out the most effective #hashtags to use could help.
Home for me is #QualicumBeach but does #qualicum do the job?
There is more than one #parksville which may be why #ParksvilleBC is also used.
Both the more popular #vancouverisland and the more efficient #vanisle are in use. #Oceanside has uses.
Does #BC work or should we use #britishcolumbia?
Any thoughts? Are there others?
