Could I politely ask that if you're posting about or , you use hashtags.

It's obviously fine for you to have any discussion you like here, but some of us would prefer not to hear about the bird or its mad CEO! If you kindly use hashtags, we can filter the posts out and then everyone's happy.

Thanks. ❤️

@kel Yes. Trouble is, people use so many variations of both words, it's easier if they use hashtags. Certainly from a visually impaired perspective (which, I appreciate, is niche!)

@Florence You'll want to be adding those variations to your filters. It's easier if people use hashtags, but there's no requirement for them to do so.

That's key to this place, you know. You curate your experience. 💚

@kel Is difficult to misspell things for filters. Screen readers 'read" them aloud very oddly dvd so it's hard to know exactly which words. If that makes sense.

@kel eg Melon Husk. That one is not too bad. But I'm having some difficulties working out exactly which words was typed. But yes, in general, I do take your point. It just renders it harder to use. xx

@Florence I sympathize.

Another great option to is to just let it scroll on by. 👍

@kel The screen reader has to read them before I know. So easy to do if you can see them but can take ages with a SR.

@kel Sorry, I'm not trying to be tedious. It's just an issue, possibly just for me. I'll live! 😀

@Florence
We can also filter just words without hashtags, in case people forget to use them.

@MPCavalier Yes, true. But so many variations of the words are in use, it's easier if people just tag things. xx
