Well, that reminds me that Mastodon has huge, unresolved problems, such as tags being part of the post's body like Twitter rather than being a separate field like Tumblr.
Reading tweets with a hundred hashtags at the bottom seem really thirsty for attention, which is bad because Mastodon wants to fundamentally work with these, yet doesn't have good in-post integration for them. It makes interactions less genuine, more performative.
Rome wasn't built in a day, and Mastodon won't be good tomorrow either. In the meantime, you can vote to make it better on https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/10743.
Try Catodon instead. It's a much better UI and federated.
