Featured hashtags on Mastodon were originally going to be a really useful feature, content filters for people's profiles. But the actual implementation put them off to the side (where trending hashtags usually are) and hid them on mobile web view.
They were originally supposed to be above the timeline on a profile (see screenshot) so that people could easily and intuitively filter your posts. I've started an issue asking for this to be implemented, feel free to join with posts or thumbs if this interests you:

They already have the code for this, hopefully would be quick to implement.

Hello fedi. i am trying to solve the "fetch all replies" problem once and for all that makes the fedi feel a lot more desolate and with a lot more reply guys in it than it should be. this is take two, where before i had it triggered by a button, but now i think it should happen on the server-side whenever you expand a post. can anyone help me out figure out how to make this more efficient by only fetching posts that the server doesn't already have? i am not sure what the best strategy would be, and if anyone with experience doing efficient rails and SQL stuff could give me some pointers that would be gr8. the patch is actually extremely simple it just needs a few nice things to make it not DDoS everyone.

Now deployed on #PhanpySocialDev (dev.phanpy.social). Media-first UI experience only kicks in for #Pixelfed account log-ins. Basic features work, except:
- Local and Federated timeline show the same thing
- Trending, Bookmarks, Reply, Lists, and Filters don't work
- Notifications page showing duplicate notifications
The rest needs more testing 🙏, though I'm not sure how much feature-detection can be done to hide unsupported features.
