I’ve been away for a couple weeks, so I’m catching up on the trending hashtag thing in a most rudimentary way this morning - I honestly don’t have a valid opinion except that I’d probably turn it off if there was a switch. I use Tweetbot for twitter because it doesn’t shove stuff in my timeline that’s not chronological posts from people I follow.

Aside: I think one of these would balance out the NASA sticker on my MacBook: designbyhumans.com/shop/mastod

@Devils_Rancher Also, now that I think about it, I mute an awful lot of hashtags on twitter because they’re so much commercial noise over there. Lots of apps auto-post to twitter with their hashtag whenever you use the app (untappd for instance) & man, they clutter up the place. Searchability is good, gamification by commercial entities is bad & I hope that continues to be zealously guarded against here.
