Here's an unofficial guide to discovering hashtags on Mastodon.

#HotTake #Mastodon #hashtags should be retired. In favor of a setting to enable or disable server wide or federation wide indexing per instance.

Compartimos esta gran noticia con ustedes! A partir de esta semana estará funcionando en nuestros servidores, además de la instancia de Mastodon Uruguay, un relay activitypub. ¿Que es un relay? Es un servidor intermediario entre instancias del fediverso, que envía y recibe publicaciones "públicas" desde y para los servidores que estan suscritos al relay, sin importar si las instancias estén federando con esa cuenta o instancia. Actualmente se dá el caso, por la arquitectura granular del fediverso, que haya cuentas que realicen publicaciones con visibilidad pública, que no aparecen en instancias amigas, por el simple hecho de que no hay nadie de la instancia suscrito a esa cuenta. Si las cuentas publican utilizando #hashtags, podrían llegar igual, porque los hashtags se federan, pero si no lo hace, esa cuenta seguramente no aparezca en los muros de federada de otras instancias. Cuando una instancia se suscribe a un relay, envía todas las publicaciones con visibilidad pública al relay y recibe de éste, las publicaciones con visibilidad "pública" de otras instancias. Es una forma de potenciar el intercambio y el flujo de publicaciones entre instancias para agrandar el fediverso visible. Existen muchos servidores relay, pero generalmente están en el norte. Los servidores relay consumen recursos y ancho de banda por lo que muchas veces solo se admiten instancias manualmente que cumplan con ciertos criterios, como por ejemplo, estar en alguna región geográfica, ser instancias temáticas o comunidades específicas. Es por esto que para poner la frutilla de la torta luego de la migración nuestra instancia a un servidor dedicado y mejora de los servicios en general, que decidimos montar nuestro propio relay cuyo fin será potenciar el fediverso latinoamericano. Mensaje para admins: Si quieren suscribir vuestra instancia al relay activitypub, deben contactar a @j3j5@mastodon.uy o @admin@mastodon.uy por privado, desde las cuentas admin de la instancia. Solo agregaremos por el momento, instancias latinas. La URL del relay para agregar en la consola de administración de Mastodon es https://relay.mastodon.uy/inbox #relay #activitypub #mastodon #undernet #uruguay #fediverso

Our Lady #JoanMastodon had fought entire battles defending hashtags against the Great Algo, and her alliance with John Mastodon had been strained ever since, in the Great Debate, she had referred to his tags as #slushtags. So #hashtags clearly mattered to her. But she used them in a highly idiosyncratic manner. The link between tag and toot was oblique at best, often impossible to discern. In a toot giving her favourite mutton stew recipe, for instance, her hashtags did not include #mutton or #stew or #cooking. Instead, she simply added a single tag, #ThankyouTeam, nothing else. We knew her style and we loved her, and we could spend days speculating about a particularly mystifying tag. Sir Alfred once pressed her to explain why she used hashtags in this way. Her reply was given by-the-by. I'm a free girl aren't I, Alfie. My hashtags are free, too. Let each hashtag find its way. My tags don't need me to direct them. Why don't you have some more of my mutton stew, Alfie. #NoTargets

Sir Geoffrey had placed his map on the table in the Great Hall. He explained it to our Lady Joan Mastodon. Every tag had its place. There were arrows between them, colour coded. Shaded areas identified groups of related concepts. Sir Geoffrey had even added little drawings to some of them: a camel for tags relating to periods of scarce resources, a harp for festive events, a skull for search engines. He beamed with pride. What wonderful work, my friend, our Lady Joan said to him. And I love those droll little drawings, they are so evocative! But I fear you overthink your hashtags, my dear Geoffrey. She turned around to address her knights. Hashtags, my friends, are meant to surprise and disorient. They break up what appears frozen, they connect what is isolated. Use them without plan. Hashtags are life. Having spoken thus, our Lady asked Sir Geoffrey to have dinner with her and share with her guests his tales from the Before Days. #hashtags #JoanMastodon
