I'm grateful for the recent changes in the moderation of Hashtags via Mastodon but I really wished it had a "filter" option in the dropdown, like "add to new or existing filter", mute hashtag, etc. Now that sports season is back and there are a thousand and one teams and more people are active, using team and game specific hashtags, it's gonna be hard to chase, esp when people don't use universal sport hashtags like #Football#Soccer #baseball#Rugby, etc along with their team or game specific tags. It is exciting to see sports growing in the Fediverse, though. #Mastodon #dev#MastoDev

"Is the Rugby Union so hard up for cash?"
Tom, today we know there is nothing they wouldn't do for cash, including jumping in bed with #RupertMurdoch.

It should be noted that when #TomLehrer came to #Aotearoa, he wrote a song critical of the All Blacksʼ tour of apartheid South Africa and PM Walter Nashʼs support of it. Definitely on the right side of history.

So they only gone and done it. #Zimbabwe are back at the Rugby World Cup in 2027 since 1991, after Namibia miss a penalty kick from inside their own half in the 79th minute, to win 30-28.
Let's go, dude!
They're joining Spain as my favourite 'new' nations.

Oh, y'a un match France / NZ en ce moment et... ça n'a pas vraiment l'air d'un match.
Je regarderais bien mais c'est diffusé sur Canal+ 🙄
#StartHereSocial Fun Fact #4
Three countries that consider #Rugby their national sport also have dedicated Mastodon services, supporting those three nations' local culture and communities:
#Madagascar#Madagasikara
#NewZealand#Aotearoa
#Wales#Cymru
Correlation is not causation, but we might be on to something here. Do the shared values of teamwork and community extend from the pitch to the Fediverse?
