The natural end state of hashtags is to eventually serve as subreddits for the #SocialWeb. but here they would overlap, allowing us to find the dead center of a Venn diagram of all the posts we're interested in.

@wjmaggos They could only serve as subreddits if combined with some form of moderation, like ATProto's third-party moderation system.

@arnelson why do we need that extra moderation? people might poison hashtags but they already do. current moderation can deal with that. what I also want here is all replies managed like on reddit/lemmy/kbin.

@wjmaggos - Using hashtags like groups would likely involve pulling in more of the social graph than a single server sees through follows alone; this goes beyond the scale a server admin could easily moderate.- What about single-user servers? Probably you'd need relays or other servers' feeds to get enough data to populate hashtags, and a lot of spam could come with that.- Collapsing tagged replies into threads, and viewing hashtags like a forum board, is a good idea though (Tapir feature? 🤔)

@arnelson maybe we could try it. beyond the cool value of overlap, having any place or group be where we discuss a subject doesn't make sense when we're supposed to be decentralized. I love what kbin/lemmy are trying to do but we're built different. we need to design for that.
