How is this post in my home timeline?! I don’t follow this account. It seems it wasn’t boosted. It doesn’t contain a hashtag at all (i.e. that I may be following). It wasn’t edited (to remove hashtags, eg). This account has 0 followers and 0 follows. How did they force this post into my TL? This is concerning! #mastodon#activitypub#Peertube
EDIT: as pointed out by @benroyce (thanks Ben!), there ARE hashtags in this post, it’s just my client (Ivory) that for some reason doesn’t show them.
@benroyce I’m using Ivory. Thank you. That solved the mystery, Ben!
@ivory Is this a known bug or shortcoming in Ivory — that it doesn’t show hashtags from Peertube posts? Perhaps Peertube stores hashtags differently than Mastodon?
