Is there anyway to search by hash tags? I want to be able to just search "#politics", or "#technology" for example and get anything submitted with that hash tag. I tried using the search bar that is located under "submit a post", but that doesn't really return any relevant results.

mk, there is, isn't there? But cheaba, you can visit "community" on the left side of the screen and those tags should be there. Hope this helps.

Thanks. I've never used a site like Twitter or Facebook before, so the use of # is a strange concept for me. This will take some time to get used to. (For a 20 year old, I'm strangely very socially inept lol.)

Simply search politics without the tag, and it will let you know if it has been used as a tag, and have a link to those posts.

But thanks for pointing that out. Using the hashtag should return posts with that tag. I'll fix that.
