Why is it not surprising to me that half of the search results for #Miami are shilling sex? Just a friendly reminder, if you care about human dignity, to make sure the date you buy isn’t actually a minor or an individual being controlled by a trafficker. #Miamitech #Artbasel #humantrafficking
@sandyIRL Maybe it's just on that specific instance?
When you use a hashtag on Mastodon, it only shows up in the timelines of people who are following you and are on the same instance as you.
That means that if you want your hashtag to be seen by people on other instances, you need to use a “cross-post” or “boost” function.

@sandyIRL I'm not sure which app you are using on your phone. Some have more advanced features that others. My #miami only has 2 entries on my end. I'll circle back after I do a bit more research and let you know!
