          Yeah, I thought maybe mastodon treats hashtags similar to users since you can follow hashtags.

            I use the FediBuzz Relay to push some hashtag-specific content to my instance. When you set that up, FediBuzz creates a “user” that boosts anything with that hashtag. For example, one of the hashtags I want it to help look for is #HoosierMast. It created @tag-hoosiermast@relay.fedi.buzz. So, maybe that is a work-around? However, I have no idea how to then take that Mastodon username and add it to your follows on Lemmy!
