I find this idea very innovative and exciting. It is being developed by Fedilab, and separates data from relay (a bit like AtProto does) to allow everyone to keep their data, even on a phone

Holos - a mobile ActivityPub server that runs on your phone. A relay server maintains your stable identity when you're offline. Switch between text, photos, videos, and articles from a single account. Currently in private development, sharing progress with the community.

The account following the development has just 3 posts (with some light technical details) at the time of writing, but the stuff should be published on Codeberg soon.

Question: why mastodon hastag timeline shows posts from lemmy community of same name? (feddit.it)

While looking for posts with the #degoogle hastag with my mastodon account, I realized that mixed in the hastag timeline there were posts to the !degoogle@lemmy.ml community, but not containing the hastag itself in the text.

I tried to look around, but In wasn't able to find an explanation of how this is supposed to work: is it because of the name of the community that is the same of the hastag? Or is or because the hastag is "embedded" in the community itself?

Edit: for those interested, the explanation is in this comment -> https://lemmy.world/post/39083486/20606028
