If you voice-to-text your hashtags, it will automatically camel case them for example, if you say "hashtag camel case", it will render "#CamelCase" so even if you are typing, if you have a lot of hashtags, voice to text streamlines the process.

But you have to be sure to stop voice texting if you're going to continue adding text after saying "hashtag" because #ItWillNotKnowWhenToStopAndMakeTheEntireRestOfYourSentenceIntoOneLongCamelCase

Ever.

I know #devs like to talk about feeling good when they delete code, but really, it's nowhere near as nice as a #sysadmin feels when he permanently shuts down a 12 year old server.
