     @evan Oddly cumbersome to find out what posts are tagged that way.

     That is, your post mentions the tags.pub actor and looking at that I could find no way to see the tagged posts. I thought perhaps its profile page would have a boosts button to see.

     Instead, you have to manually search for the tag.

     But yes, interesting posts!

     @virtuous_sloth yes, I wish Mastodon would pull the backlog of activities by an actor. 🤷🏼♂️

     @malte @virtuous_sloth thanks, both good points!

     There are a few things going on here. First, Mastodon doesn't backfill posts for newly discovered users. So when you load the account for the first time in your Mastodon server, it's got no shared posts.

     Two, https://tags.pub/profile/showyourstripes doesn't show attached images. And, there are a few items blocked (HTTP Status 401). I need to fix both of those.

     @evan I was going to say the same thing - I had to manually type in #showyourstripes in the search bar to see what you were referring to. One workaround could be to include in the automated profile page for a tags.pub the actual hastag, so you can just click it and see the results? @virtuous_sloth

     Third, I still need to encourage more sharing to tags.pub. As Mastodon 4.6 rolls out, I'm asking more servers to connect.
