Are there any user documentations on how the hashtag bar works? I.e. how placing hashtags at the end of a posts create an expandable bar at the end of the post and also how hashtags with certain characters like #å in #blåhaj will normalized to ascii and placed there.

The #JoinMastodon doc on docs.joinmastodon.org/user/pos… doesn't mention this.

Regarding normalization of special characters, one guess the rules from funfedi.dev - hashtags.

If you want more variations, one can add them to the list.

Also one should probably refactor that.... Ideal would be having a list of hashtag variations.
