@mariusor that's an interesting idea that is not reflected in any other ActivityPub software. Maybe yours?
@evan no, not really.
I'm just annoyed that the fediverse is treating any object as belonging to a global namespace when that's simply not true.
What I do do is to give tags an actual HTML representation, where there's details and what not. (See something like https://releases.bruta.link/tags/New )
And I plan to use them this way in the different instances of the brutalinks link aggregator. On it local tags can be used to differentiate between actor roles on each instance: moderators as an example.
@evan related tag groups: aka #fediverse and #fediversum together as one concept.
@liaizon I think that's a really good feature, but it might be too high-level. I'd like to have a server that lets you aggregate search terms, individual accounts, and hashtags, but tags.pub might be one-feed-per-tag.
Some definitions:
- Trending tags: tags which have increased in frequency the most lately
- Co-occurring tags: tags that appear together in posts most often, like EvanPoll and poll
- Global stats: total subscribers, total publishers, total number of posts shared, total number of unique tags by day/week/month/year/whatever
- Tag of the day: an interesting curated tag, with a description
@evan recognition of the fact that even with the same name, tags are still differentiated by their host.
Encouraging the wider fediverse to treat them as such.
