The new pixelfed app hashtag screen is a work of art ✨
- We use a clever (on-device) algorithm to de-duplicate similar posts (because ppl like sharing the same photo across multiple accounts)
- We display a total count of hashtag posts that is now updated more frequently
- You can now follow/unfollow hashtags on this screen
- Browse up to 12 similar hashtags
and a few more upcoming improvements 😉
@dansup I don't know how it works on PixelFed, but on Mastodon when I follow a hashtag I don't know if I am seeing a post because of my following the hashtag or if I am following the person/account or just the hashtag.
It would be nice if next to every account name there was an indication if I was already following them. That way if a new account comes up under a hashtag follow, and I think, "I should follow them" I will know whether or not I actually already do so. 😉
