It's seems right that we should have a local community to help us all with PieFed

  1. Can a mod add tags to someone else's post?

  2. How many tags are possible and will be shown?
    I just started a movie community, with tags for actors etc already at ~30. Potentially that could increase to... hundreds? More?
    How many will display? Will it always display all of them or can it be hidden /drop down, like spoiler text? Perhaps partially, e.g. the top tags are shown by default but you have to click "Expand" to see the rest.

  3. What about tags in places other than the Piefed tags entry field? E.g. in post body, comments etc. Are they... "recognized" / "effective"?

  4. Dammit, I had one more, can't remember it now.

Re: 3. No. For sending, they need to be in that tags form field, and for receiving, they need to have been in the ActivityPub "tags": {"type": "hashtag"} section for a post. For both directions, PieFed isn't regexing any text anywhere to look for something that might be a tag.

Thanks for the info.
