Introducing the Lemmy Tagginator (github.com)

I have just deployed a script and a mastodon bot which attempt to hashtag lemmy posts so that they are better discoverable in microblogging services.

Please check the README for the why and the how.

If you have a microblogging account, please consider following the bot account which will help its hashtags federate to your instance's public timeline.

Many thanks to @[email protected] for hosting the bot.

PS: If you have a mastodon account, you can reply to your posts on mastodon (just search for their url) and add hashtags to your replies. This will achieve a quick and dirty version of what this bot is doing

Ye, the plan is to keep improving this bot with more fine-tuned mechanisms. Some of the things you suggested are already something I was planning

Allow excluding posts when a specific keyword is specified in the body
Allow adding extra optional tags when specific keywords are specified in the body

Is Mastodon ever starts supporting QT, I will also switch to QT the posts instead of replying to them.

Feel free to open feature requests in github about it

Nice! Great minds and all that. Definitely going to be keeping an eye on how it develops :)
