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
Ye, the plan is to keep improving this bot with more fine-tuned mechanisms. Some of the things you suggested are already something I was planning
Is Mastodon ever starts supporting QT, I will also switch to QT the posts instead of replying to them.
Feel free to open feature requests in github about it
Nice! Great minds and all that. Definitely going to be keeping an eye on how it develops :)
Now added both optional tags and post skipping
