I want to discuss a better means of organizing tags. I propose a tag hierarchy.

Basically, if I search for #dog, I should find posts with #puppy, #pug, #baby_pugs, #cute_dogs, etc.

But, if I search for #pug, I should only get posts with #pug, or other tags like #baby_pugs, #cute_pugs, etc.

This would make adding 50+ similar tags to a post irrelevant and allow for normal people to put a single obscure tag and still gain visibility.

I want to bring this idea up to more people. Where should I discuss this? You can suggest any site, community, or Lemmy instance where I can develop this further.

I’m happy to discuss this here as well.

    Correct. Today I learned that putting it at the start of a line here makes it looks like you’re yelling random statements.
