@dansup I find "hashtag buttons" more readable and overall nicer

@dansup @pixelfed Looks good! Much cleaner and more parseable. I do however think it’s important to keep the capitalisation and the tag order that the person chose? Those can convey meaning.

@dansup @pixelfed I like the idea of buttons but they've "lost" the identity of being a hashtag by not having, you know, a hash.

@dansup @pixelfed I think it’s helpful to have them shown in this new button style!
I’d also suggest increasing the line height of the description text. Currently, it’s very tight which doesn’t look great, and makes reading multiline descriptions harder.

@dansup @pixelfed As somebody who lives for the captions as much as the photos, the separate hashtags look a lot more inviting (esp. for longer captions)!

@pixelfed @dansup I am excited about the hashtag buttons and would prefer this version. How would it be if you could select this yourself via a setting in the settings? That would please both camps.

@dansup from my observation (in IG), most folks there purposely "hide" hashtags by putting in a lot of newlines (and force "show more") or add them via a comment instead of post description. Surfacing them this way seems to undo their intentions in my opinion 🤔

@dansup @pixelfed how would a hashtag be handled if it's surrounded by normal text?

@dansup @pixelfed separate id better for end-of-text tags, obviously. What happens to inline tags?

@dansup @pixelfed personally I like the "old school" #Hastag better. These "hastag bubbles" just don't do it for me.

@dansup @pixelfed hellllll yesssssssss

@dansup @pixelfed After 👍

@dansup @pixelfed Way prefer the second, button style. Looks intentional rather than the hack that hashtags began as.

@dansup @pixelfed As pixelfed is a visual platform to begin with, I would vote for the hashtag buttons.

@dansup after definitely

@dansup @pixelfed definitely a lot better and infinitely more readable.

@dansup @pixelfed love, love, love it!
I always was annoyed by the hashtag spam cloud at the bottom of (IG) posts and wonder why hashtags weren't handled separately outside the original caption - like EyeEm did it when they were cool.

@dansup @pixelfed That’s a lot nicer! Before looks a lot more cluttered than after.

@dansup @pixelfed as long as you don't do the thing where hashtags in the middle of the text get ignored
