This is nothing but a *very* long list of #Hashtags with blank lines in between, wasting too much screen space

#Muted and #Blocked

#Pixelfed #HashtagSpam

To anyone who wants to bring their why2025 badge to 39c3, don't forget to bring your antenna. If you don't have yours anymore, I am bringing a few kits with an antenna and connector (thanks to @a51c ).

I have 7 of them with a half-decent antenna for €6, and 2 of them with a the original badge antenna for €3.

The LoRa module on the badge also requires two bodge wires to be soldered. Two pieces of wire and instructions are included in the kits.

On some badges it may be required to remove some epoxy around one of the battery holders, and even if it isn't, it may make soldering the bodge wires easier. You may also want to make your badge safer and more compact by removing the battery holders entirely.

I am also bringing some epoxy removal kits for free (they're just alcohol wipes and disposable vinyl gloves).

@YurkshireLad

It's not the number of #Hashtags per se, it's their clear relevance to the post (text or image) at hand

(I'll name names...)

#Pixelfed seems to have a cultural bias toward long lists of hashtags, many of which have no direct or even indirect relevance to the specific image in the post -- sometime using 15 or 20 or more hashtags

It's just simple #HashtagSpam

At least PIxelfed has gotten away from the original format of one hashtag per line -- now they're all in a block

Still too many are simply irrelevant to the photo subject, the camera used, or the post-processing technique -- they're just noise
