👀 some people are overusing hashtags on Loops to appear on multiple Explore trending feeds👀 some people are overusing hashtags on Loops to appear on multiple Explore trending feeds
A potential solution: filter out hashtags that contain a hashtag of another trending tag.
Our current trending tags: fyp, music, Funny, nature, retro, art, scifi, movies, dog, Science, IEEEspectrum
Am I overreacting or should we take action?

Short video isn't the villain, it’s just how we share our lives today.Short video isn't the villain, it’s just how we share our lives today. More people are capturing and sharing raw, human moments than ever before, and that’s beautiful ✨
The problem isn't the format; it's the surveillance and toxicity built into the big platforms.
We’re trying to keep the joy (sharing + remixing + community) and ditch the stuff that harms people (manipulative feeds, creepy tracking, lock-in).
