Basics

  • Start with #, no spaces; use underscores or camel case;
  • Non-Latin tags work too, such as #tips;
  • Tapping a tag searches it, across chats as well.

Channel index

  1. Define fixed tags per topic (tips, updates, q-and-a);
  2. Post a pinned index message with clickable tags;
  3. New subscribers browse history topic by topic.

Naming

Use one spelling per topic — avoid both #tips and #howto for the same thing — and prune unused tags regularly.
