To be fair: since Mastodon doesn't have full-text search (just like Twitter did) and only hashtags are indexed for search: you need them in Mastodon to actually discover toots relating to a specific topic.

I didn't do the research, but I recon: that's why they where introduced in Twitter in the first place.

Edit: typo

Mastodon actually added full-text search, but people have to opt-in to it.

Him: "wait, it's all reposts?"

The internet, holding a gun to his head: "Always has been."

Came in here hoping for at least one person to take advantage of this meme with an image.

For shame.

Be the change you hope to see in the world.
