I've followed all the frequent posters on piefed.social using my mastodon.social account so we should be seeing a lot more PieFed content showing up there now. But unless you use hashtags, I'll be the only one seeing it!

I had a thought that it might be useful if communities had a list of default tags, so even if poster does not choose any, the post would still have some generic ones. If Fediverse feels that would be excessive, we could agree on some prefix/suffix for those default tags. So gaming_default does not "pollute" gaming

Mbin already does this afaik (the default tags, not the prefixes), so I don't think that would be controversial.
