Custom tag for community? (lemmy.world)

Is it maybe planned to be able to set a custom tag for a community instead of one pulled from the url? I reckon there are many communities where this would make more sense.

Like the community i am moderating is c/bicycle_touring, but i think #biketouring and #bikepacking are the hashtags that are being used on mastodon for this stuff.

Cant imagine anything worse than not only specific communities names to post to, but also arbitrarily collecting up #hashtags. Would these appear as posts to you? What if the poster didn’t want it to appear in your community?

Not sure i get what you're saying. Lemmy now adds a hashtag for better mastodon interoperability that is pulled from the url of the community. I was simply proposing that it would be nice if this hashtag could be customized if it would make sense to do so, as an option.
