2. I'd like to be able to search a hashtag and get back a list of accounts that have used that hashtag within x days or have that tag in their profile. Ordered by "frecency". I'd then like to drill in to see their tagged posts. Perhaps the biggest difficulty I've found on my alt-account is that even though I've been through the pain of finding and following around 200 people who have used a relevant tag, my timeline is frustratingly irrelevant to the point of being chaotic.

@charlesroper @kissane The world is a big place, and not a "void". If the US is important to you, certainly, time your posts, but there are other timezones with interesting people in them.  @charlesroper @kissane  @charlesroper @kissane also an "explore"-like function that let's you see recent popular posts limited to specific hashtags, or any of the hashtags you follow. @naught101@mastodon.social @charlesroper@indieweb.social @kissane@mas.to #Firefish (f. #Calckey), #Misskey, have that, it's called antenna(s). |

So I have to resort to clicking about to manually search for my hashtags. Which yields better results. But then I'm missing the stuff people don't tag (which is a lot).
So yeah, it's very difficult.
I'd also say it's all very time bound. Posting stuff while America sleeps means you're posting into the void, because those posts aren't surfaced by an algo in the morning. A tactic I've often used there is to boost my own posts to give them a second wind.
