Hi,
I am wondering if there are any planned updates for the tagging system, or if NodeBB’s current setup is considered already optimized?
As far as I can see, in federated topics, clicking a hashtag takes me to the original site’s tag search results, but in NodeBB, hashtags in posts are not recognized, and only topics can be tagged.
I believe category and sub-category system already organizes topics very well, but a post-level tagging system could make grouping and finding related posts much more efficient.

crazycells that's a good question that probably bears further research.
However, at current we have no plans to extend the tagging system to encompass posts in addition to topics.
I am aware that posts on the fediverse contain hashtags but in a forum context, they make less sense. That is why tags have traditionally been at the topic level.
Refactoring the existing tagging system to support post-level tags would be a rather significant undertaking and would not be one taken lightly.
