Should I add hashtags to Lemmy posts (lemmy.ml)

Ive always wondered. - Should I be adding relevant hashtags to Lemmy posts related to the subject of the post to make the content more findable on other Activitypub services?

You can if you want, but Lemmy doesn't translate them, like Mastodon does, and you might find them conflicting with the header Markup.

That, and Lemmy users used to a more Reddit-like structure of posting might get rather annoyed by it, since it would clog up the feed with unhelpful information.
