But what if I want to be on a small instance or even self-host? Then I cannot see any potentially appealing hashtags because I do not start with a large library of locally downloaded content.
I only see a couple of the most recent posts, but the number 2K seems to indicate that there are a lot more that it just is not showing me.
By contrast, I felt like looking at pictures of galaxies right now, so I went over to astrodon.social/tags/galaxies, and behold–look at all of them! So easy!
In fact, maybe the lesson here is that I should just give up on Pixelfed and use Mastadon for discovering cool things to look at in my downtime.

You can type the hashtag in the URL on the web, and follow it from there.
E.g. pixelfed.social/i/web/hashtag/urbanSketching

are you on .social? [ie, for me the link would be pixelfed.art/i/web/hashtag/urbansketching]
