Instead of enabling #hashtag #trending vs. making it hard to find tags and convos, what's the third option? How do we get the good without the bad?
1) Make hastags 1st class citizens, like posts -- eg. being able to report, block or mute them?
2) Instances blocking hashtags?
3) Auto-banning users by hashtag?
4) A downvoting system like reddit? Eg. upvote or downvote a tag to affect its trendiness?
5) Could trending tags actually *combat* abuse?
