Fediwall representation of a tagged NodeBB post
-
Feedback, however I'm not sure that it belongs in BSD Cafe Billboard, so I'll begin this in the test area.
https://fediwall.social/?servers=mastodon.bsd.cafe&tags=freebsd&accounts=FreeBSDFoundation@mastodon.social&title=Fediwall%3A+%23FreeBSD+and+FreeBSD+Foundation+in+BSD+Cafe inclusion of https://billboard.bsd.cafe/post/108 is slightly unexpected.
The post is tagged
#FreeBSDhowever Fediwall shows the entirety of my post excluding the tags.This confused me at first, but then …
@defnull@chaos.social I guess, I should simply begin thinking of the hashtags as invisible metadata. Correct?
I don't object to the invisibility. Just checking my mindset.
I'm so accustomed to visible tags – including visibility in Fediwall where, I guess, the visible tags originated in BSD.Cafe Mastodon. Still finding my feet with the effects of federation. Enjoying NodeBB

@grahamperrin Yes, tags are metadata. Fediwall only shows the actual post body. Most apps (including mastodon) expect users to put tags in the post body and do not have a separate UI to add tags, so most posts have visible tags in the body anyway and there is no need to render them separately.
