@FediTips It's one of my favorite features, so I don't miss posts from people I care about who don't post very often.

@FediTips What I don't get is that hashtags do make way much more sense to be organised in lists, or maybe mixed - but with hashtags clustered in a list, you could group together # degoogled and # unplugtrump together with # FOSS - but keep #bicycling together with # triatlon and # running.
Is that somehow doable?

Hashtags on lists would be fantastic, it's one of the most requested features on Mastodon. The developers definitely know there's demand for it, but I don't know when this might happen.
Nearest workaround is using the "advanced web mode" which lets you create dedicated columns for following hashtags with up to four tags in each column. More info at https://fedi.tips/how-to-activate-mastodons-tweetdeck-style-advanced-web-interface

There's also another feature for that scenario where you can ask for extra notifications when specific accounts post: https://fedi.tips/how-to-be-notified-when-someone-posts-on-mastodon/
