Dumb question, but is there way to follow a hashtag on mobile, or specifically a certain app that does this? I’ve never seen how to do it on the Mastodon or Metaapp. Thanks!

@Suzyanalyst1 I know Tusky allows this, search for or click on a hashtag and you'll see a + option (same as you see to follow a person), click it and you're following the hashtag.

@Suzyanalyst1 In the Mastoot app you tap the hashtag and then a window appears with a little + button in the upper right. It’s a pretty good app if you want to try it. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/mastoot/id1501485410

@kentw Thank you, those Reddit comments gave me an answer—you can do it from TOOOT, which is free. I downloaded it and followed a hashtag by searching it and then adding it to my feed with a plus button in the corner. So now I’m curious to see if that will communicate to my feed through the regular Mastodon app, which I like better for reading because the type is bigger!
