I find it a very useful feature. Both the list of variants and the number of tweets (if any). Maybe the app-makers would do well to implement it? πŸ™‚

I use Ice Cubes, which does in fact implement it. I presume it pulls it from the individual user’s instance, but for all I know, they use some funky averaging of numbers pulled from a variety of large instances.

See img below as the result of me entering # sf.

I suspect it pulls it from the instance. I have 2 accounts these days, on 2 instances... 1 pretty big and a new one with less than 20 users. When I want to post about one of my fav #'s, the little one shows a lot fewer posts per week than the old one.

Did you type in "sf" or #sf?
The web interface only reacts to #.

@MaryPot @flit @human3500 @Mastodon I typed it in with the hashtag, but not in my reply, as I didn’t feel it polite to suddenly spam our conversation at everybody searching that hashtag. :)
