Is posting from #Mastodon to a #Lemmy community a good idea or will this just confuse everyone?
Comments on Mastodon tag the users in the thread while comments in Lemmy somehow work without this. Comments on Lemmy are for everyone while replies on Mastodon are only shown to followers of the OP.

This post is a great example of why they can’t just be stripped; it has hashtags used in the middle of a sentence as words, but then it also has hashtags appended to the end on their own. You’d need to handle both cases to get rid of them.
