Hey @helpers or any helpful #Friendica users. I'm trying to understand the difference between Categories and Hashtags.
From what I'm seeing, categories never leave the server, but hashtags do get federated out. They kind of look the same in the timeline, with hashtags having a lightning bolt, and categories being green with "X's" that allow you to remove them.
So why choose one over the other? Or why combine them?
Thanks!
