In order to improve interoperability with Mastodon and other microblogging platforms, Lemmy now automatically includes a hashtag with new posts. The hashtag is based on the community name, so posts to /c/lemmy will automatically have the hashtag #lemmy. This makes Lemmy posts much easier to discover.

this should be interesting

for reference, this is what it looks like on Mastodon, the post to [email protected] it gets the hashtag for announcements

it's not really part of the message text, it's separate

image proxying also sounds good

I'm pretty sure thats due to how mastodon renders hashtags at the end of a post. Not due to how Lemmy sends it.
