I have just deployed a script and a mastodon bot which attempt to hashtag lemmy posts so that they are better discoverable in microblogging services.

Please check the README for the why and the how.

If you have a microblogging account, please consider following the bot account which will help its hashtags federate to your instance’s public timeline.

Many thanks to @[email protected] for hosting the bot.

PS: If you have a mastodon account, you can reply to your posts on mastodon (just search for their url) and add hashtags to your replies. This will achieve a quick and dirty version of what this bot is doing

    Nice! Great minds and all that. Definitely going to be keeping an eye on how it develops :)
