For example, !lemmy starts with an !, but why not start with a # symbol?

    #hashtags don’t automatically work on Lemmy, but if I cross post this comment to another federated service (mastodon etc.) the hashtags should work there. #lemmy @knova@knova@dartboard.social

      Okay, we have:

      • # for tagging something
      • @ for usernames
      • ! for communities

      But does a question mark have any purpose here?
