Imagine the #fediverse had a hashtag dictionary, based on the existing folksonomy, that app makers could easily implement. One that did things like merge legalisation and legalization into one tagspace, searching on either as a tag gives you results from both. Or respected capitalisation, so apps didn't #NowHere into #nowhere.
@strypey Ah shit, what you need is a prefix with folksonomic properties.
This is infact what my #qiuy annotations are supposed to provide.
That way you have both the prefix and the tag with their own behaviours of semantic divergence. Increasing the layers adds one type of complexity but ameliorates another kind.
