Just so you know, I think Friendica already has this feature. I'm glad its coming to mastodon too, that's great! 馃榾
Being able to edit your posts without deleting it is another Friendica feature but now I hear people saying its coming to mastodon too.
Yes, hashtag following is so useful on Friendica! It shows it can be done!
Post editing code has already been in Masto for some time (you can see signs of this on some PeerTube posts viewed through Masto). There have been technical hitches though, so the code hasn't been switched on yet :(
@feditips @UPPERKEES
Yes I have an alt account on friendica and I've seen this when I edit posts. Mastodon users also get notified when a post they interacted with is edited, and I think they also saves the edit history now. All of these are useful features, being able to edit posts will allow me to correct all of my silly typos, lol 
I hope they figure it out and add the edit feature to mastodon too :)
@fla @UPPERKEES and i loved that, i could follow topics of interest w/o having to know the ppl that post about it.
that's why i say i miss it here on mastodon, sry if my previous post came a lil ambiguous. 馃檪
@UPPERKEES The most important question is still unanswered: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/18809#issuecomment-1185096116
Passive hashtag following would be nice but pretty useless on small instances.
Wouldn't it just show whichever tagged posts are visible from your instance? (At least, Friendica does this?)
So, it could be ok on a small instance if the members follow lots of people?
@feditips @UPPERKEES I guess so. But what's the use case?
When I follow a lot of people I already see their post and can define filter columns for certain words or tags. But that's following people, not tags.
Maybe using relays is a temporary solution, but that's still grabbing as much fediverse traffic as possible and then filtering it locally which needs a lot of resources (CPU, database/disk space, bandwidth).
What I'd hope for is some way of following #exampletag@example.instance.
@UPPERKEES cool i am starting to use mastodon more and more
This was one feature i was really missing
