    hosestly this is kinda what tags are for. they should be added as tags and make choosing a tag a requirmeent of posting. that way it does not need to be policed.

      I don’t think Lemmy supports tags yet. It does seem like a natural use case, though, to allow filtering and sorting based on tags. It does kinda raise the question, though — if we’re doing all our categorization based on hashtags, what are communities for?

        im not sure if they are hashtags what im talking about. im on piefed though but I know other communities have posts where you have to choose a dropdown and they make colorful tags that you can filter on from the community feed.

          Oh I meant the free text “tags” field at the bottom of the piefed post creation form that lets you add a hashtag so that people on other fedi services like mastodon can find your posts. I see now what you’re suggesting.
