 Two of these are real, but maybe kinda niche  😂😂 
 I use hashtags for things that interest me. this helps me find people to follow.  the hashtag is useful with nostr. don't close your mind to it. #smij is my favorite hashtag, but I'm biased. 
 We need tags #as long as people use #them correctly 🐶🐾🤣🤣🤣 
 Not all clients support keyword search. Damus only allows hashtag search. 
So except when I’m goofing around (like I do sometimes) I usually try to use hashtags that people might use as search terms to find the note I’m posting.

 I only found yarn people because of following hashtags in Amethyst. I try to include as many yarn or craft related tags as possible in case there is someone out there looking to connect with another crafty person. That said I will throw in a dogstr or thighstr now and again 🤷‍♀️. I also post very irregularly.

#Hastags were created when #engineer Chris Messina decided to use hashtags as #a way to filter through Early Twitter tweets 
as a #way to follow what was happening durning certain / urgent/ events.
Then slowly people used them as a way #to follow a conversation and was a #signal for shared experiences.
