How can I read your politics posts separated from the software dev posts?

I use #Amethyst client

Thank you

 I tried to make separate accounts to separate topics long ago, but it was too much of a hassle. I reserve the right to talk about anything.

Maybe I can use hashtags, and you can mute certain hashtags?  Which hashtag should I use?  hash-nostr for nostr content and hash-politics for political content?  I could do that.  Or just let me know if you think it should be different.

Btw, most of the time I'm tired of politics too.  Unless a nuke went off.  I just don't need to hear about the latest censorship or retaliation or lawfare episode.

 Hashtag usage appears to have declined somehow on Nostr (at least that's my perception). I try to use them consistently over at Mastodon where they seem to be much more regularly used.

Maybe Nostr hasn't had a culture of #hashtagUsage that gained enough momentum to establish them as good practice?

Hashtags are awesome IMO for various reasons, discoverability, community building, ...
