While looking for posts with the #degoogle hastag with my mastodon account, I realized that mixed in the hastag timeline there were posts to the [email protected] community, but not containing the hastag itself in the text.
I tried to look around, but In wasn’t able to find an explanation of how this is supposed to work: is it because of the name of the community that is the same of the hastag? Or is or because the hastag is “embedded” in the community itself?
Edit: for those interested, the explanation is in this comment -> https://lemmy.world/post/39083486/20606028

Oh, on. The setting thing was what I understood from the discussion in the link, but I didn’t go very deep
