Is it maybe planned to be able to set a custom tag for a community instead of one pulled from the url? I reckon there are many communities where this would make more sense.

Like the community i am moderating is c/bicycle_touring, but i think #biketouring and #bikepacking are the hashtags that are being used on mastodon for this stuff.

Ah ok. I would kinda be surprised if that hasn't been discussed, this should be relevant for a lot of communities. Just checked for example #desire_paths has 0 posts on mastodon, they're all being posted without underscore. Or !bicycles@lemmy.ca would probably be better categorized under a #bicycle" or "bicycling" hashtag.

Maybe someone here with a github account thinks this is a good idea and will create an issue there. If not i may look into it when i am done with my holidays.
