Does anyone use PixelFed?

Also, is there a good app for iPhone for it? I tried out Vernissage and it’s nice in some ways and confusing in others.

I just discovered that on the web interface, you can see posts under a followed hashtag by going to "Discover" on the menu, then "My Hashtags", but they don't seem to sync from pixel.social (or whereever) to an app you're using.

For iOS, Vernissage doesn't seem to support hashtags, but in Tusker you can add the hashtag in the app, then see related posts by tapping "Explore" and then selecting the hashtag from your list that's displayed. Or you can also pin in to the top as a custom timeline by tapping the setting button at the top on the main screen, and adding your hashtag from there.

Which... I guess may make more sense than putting them in the Home feed to prevent tag abuse?

Ah I see where it is. Ya know..that makes sense and I think I can live with that.

Hmm..so on that Discover>My Hashtags page, just on the website. I'm following a good dozen-or-two hashtags..I only seem to have three appear on that My Hashtags page at a time. And at random. What the fuck lmao.

huh, confirmed. I added 4 hashtags and it only displays 3.

Joy of software in development, I guess. Looks like there's also a bug, in that sometimes after I follow a hashtag, I have to reload the page with F5 because it doesn't do anything when I click menu options.

Lol fucks sake.

yeah, I've replied to one of the dev's posts on mastodon asking about the only 3 hashtags part.
