RE: Why Hashtags Became Noise

When properly used, hashtags help unify content. Unfortunately, people engage in tag spam which devalue the tags.

Hashtags are a bit like indexing. It turns out that authors do a horrible job of indexing their work. Publishers have learned to leave indexing to dedicated indexers.

Perhaps the only way to make hashtags work is to let a third party choose the hashtags for the post.
