Here’s a quick tip for folks on Aussie.zone who are new to Lemmy.

As well as appearing on Lemmy, your posts and replies are visible across all the apps on the Fediverse.

That includes Mastodon, KBin, Calckey, and others.

If you want more people to see and reply to your comments and replies, make sure you include a hashtag e.g. #AFL [#AFL](https://aus.social/tags/AFL)

It makes your posts/comments/replies easier to find across all the Fediverse apps.

Edit: Testing simple tags with this post - https://aussie.zone/post/297508 - doesn’t work. They may need to be hyperlinked. Testing a hyperlinked edit into post also does not appear. This may be fake news, it may only work Mastodon into Lemmy, not out.

    That is interesting. I actually wondered/ wanted hashtags to be common on lemmy like mastodon and have the ability to follow /block hashtags in lemmy.

      AJ’s tags are hyperlinked. If we just type a hashtag in here, does it appear elsewhere? On Mastodon, you usually select the autocompleted hashtag as you write it, it doesn’t work like that here.
