Hello #fediverse

Just landed #here and still figuring things out!

What’s one #account you think I must #follow ?

#NewHere #mastodon #introduction

@bb2101

Well, @FediTips .

Also follow the #NewHere hashtag.

Otherwise depends on your interests. Use tags in your posts to make them visible to others with similar interests. Browse & follow those tags to find your clan.

Anyway, welcome.

I'd suggest few to no hashtags in the middle of the text.

Hashtags for visibility best in a separate line at the end.

Any single line of hashtags at the very end of a toot, with a blank line above, gets collapsed into a small, separate tag list.

I personally don't especially care about the especially collapsed display. Just that interspersed hashtags make things nearly unreadable for me sometimes.

Think normal text (white on black for me), with dark blue on black words interspersed (i.e. too low contrast).

@project1enigma
Putting hashtags in text is brutal for those who rely on screen readers. They prefer to have the option to avoid reading the hashtags at the bottom.

You might want to try a different browser UI or app option if you’re not finding the hashtags readable at the bottom. In my case, my instance offers additional UIs in a variety of themes, and the hashtags at the bottom are in bubbles.
