Is this about that new hashtag instance Prodromou launcher?

Looking at it, it's weird that it doesn't respect indexable flag on profiles, instead saying you need to add a hashtag to your bio to opt out?

Evan Prodromou recently launched tags.pub, which is a service that creates a bunch of accounts that boost hashtags. People on the masto side didn't like that it was opt out, and getting their notifications spammed.

It was mostly people in the This Is My Hugbox And You Will Facilitate That For Me section of The Mastodon Network™ that were pissed about it.

Hmmm if you want to call it that... It's not like it's necessary for Lemmy's good.
