Exactly. For example, in the Cyrillic segment there’s a bot that reposts every message in Russian it can get access to. And it operates on an opt-out basis.

Here, however, as I understand it from the description, either you yourself (for your own account) or the server admin (for the whole server) has to connect the bot manually. And posts from those who don’t do that simply won’t be seen by the bot.

@evanprodromou @example It’s probably worth adding an explanation why tags.pub is necessary; aka: why Mastodon’s existing “follow hashtag” feature is inadequate.

@evanprodromou When I click on the @_followback link in your blog entry I get a bunch of code.

@the_moep Fedibuzz is great! It normally works as a relay, though. So, you have to be an admin to set it up. But I’ve recently found out you can also follow the accounts, like with tags.pub. So it’s similar in that way. I think it’s a big Fediverse and it’s good to have different services.

@octothorpes Great!

@com There’s a whole section on it in the video!

@johan We’d like to get it to global, but we’re doing it a step at a time.

@blag Great!

@nantel @evanprodromou Don't click on it. I haven't built the pages yet. Search for it in Mastodon. I'll fix the link.

I think there's an issue with the follows, at least with NodeBB. Followback didn't follow me back, and the relay won't establish

It's probably just NodeBB being overly strict.
