recently thenewgreen used #wheresthebeef, and I remarked that we needed some sort of repository of amazing, lesser used tags here.
More than 2/3 of tags (roughly) have less that 50 uses. More than 3/4 have less than 200. The top 5 all have more than 1000!!!
TNG told me to be the change i wanted to see, so here we go, with a few of my favourites:
#tfmf - Short for "Things From My favourites"
number of uses: 8
A nice curated list by Quatrarius of cool things.
________
Number of uses: 12
The home base of the Hubski Literary Thing, a bookshare project started by Complexity
________
Number of uses: 1
The offending post here by kingmudsy. I'd love to see this get some more traction (and no, mudsy, I don't judge you for going to see movies alone. not even a little).

Number of uses: 16
beautiful and saddening things in this tag. I don't know if I want it used less, or more. I hope that fuck_it is alive.

Number of uses: 7

What are some of your favourite lesser used tags? Tell us your stories!!
Do you smell that? That's the smell of sweet, sweet recognition.
Hey, I also recognized it's been over a week since a post on that tag. Get to work there Q!!
Does anyone remember #tagoftheweek ? That was a fun tagtime.
I do, I do. That was fun. We should do it again. Someone chose the tag of the week and then the post with the most shares won. That person that posted the "most shared post" then picked next weeks tag, right? Someone get that thing cranking again. I'll jump in, for sure.
Thread I've been meaning to make for a while, good job. I'd like to tout my two favorite tags, #beauty, for things that fit, and #humaninterest, which I've found lately is a great place to post longread bios. An example of something that personifies the beauty tag. An example of something that personifies the humaninterest tag.
I've always loved #dickwaving. There are only three posts on it, and you good for a laugh when it is used and noticed.
These two were once used more often and for obvious reasons, no longer are: #higgsy and #occupywallstreet. There was a time when #ows was used a lot on Hubski. I like #feelgoodhubski and #mydadsrecordcollection Also, #vibesandjives, which I believe was coined by nowaypablo
#songsforpabs and #musicforpabs are some of my favorite tags just because they speak so well to the intensely personal nature of Hubski. And I love that they continue to be used. Looks like you coined them both! Awesome.Also, #vibesandjives, which I believe was coined by nowaypablo
I just started adding #loneliness to past posts because there are some really great lonely posts on Hubski. I did #elonmusk last week. That tag is getting awesome.
#hubskidrinkclub# and #urbanplanning but the latter is mostly very informative posts by veen.
Hey, mk, why is ButterflyEffect's link to the hubskidrinkclub tag not working?
Known markdown issue. forwardslash; that and the carriage return before code is lost on an edit. Tags aren't hotlinking when they are the first character.
