Introducing the Lemmy Tagginator - eviltoast

I have just deployed a script and a mastodon bot which attempt to hashtag lemmy posts so that they are better discoverable in microblogging services.

Please check the README for the why and the how.

If you have a microblogging account, please consider following the bot account which will help its hashtags federate to your instance’s public timeline.

Many thanks to @jgrim@discuss.online for hosting the bot.

PS: If you have a mastodon account, you can reply to your posts on mastodon (just search for their url) and add hashtags to your replies. This will achieve a quick and dirty version of what this bot is doing

    (edits on posts are repeatedly re-boosted, which likely wasn’t noticed as mastodon only ever allows one boost from an actor)

    Ye, lemmy integration with the microblogging fediverse is pretty janky atm.
