#helloworld! I like it when the #internet is for everyone and am trying out the #fediverse. Please bear with me; I was told I should use lots of #hashtags and am trying out the features.
I'm using #fedilab on Android. I already have a #noobquestion: can I add hashtags in Fedilab to my home feed? Right now I have some hashtags in the top bar but I have to view them all separately. #thx!
How many characters are too many? Can I just go on forever? I heard there was a limit but I still haven't reached it. Maybe it's 600 characters? 1000? I guess at some point the numbers will just go red and I will know what's up. Ok it wasn't 600. I'll just search online then because this is getting way out of hand. ...GREAT SCOTT I'm glad I did: it's 65,535 characters on my instance. #qoto 😂

RE: hashtags
In addition to the below, you can long press a column heading and add multiple tags. (Or exclude)

When I press that button nothing happens, and when I go to Followed Tags I get this error: "Your instance does not seem to support that feature!" Is it an app issue or an instance issue related to Mastodon 4, or both perhaps?
@sebastian_hos
QOTO is different than mas.to which runs mastodon, we are a fork wioth more features. Sadly even though we had hashtag follows **years** before mastodon fedilab only suypports it on mastodon right now, where its a fairly new feature.
You can follow hashtags fromt he web interface if you wish (which is better than fedilab IMO).
That said we will pull inn some of code from vanilla mastodon soon and when we do this feature will work with fedilab.
