Questionable hashtag suggestions

Open Pottit opened this issue 4 months ago • 0 comments

I'm running 1.0.0.68 from the F-droid repository, and my account is hosted on Pxlmo.com.

When I press the search button and enter #, Pixelfed lands me four recommendations. It's worth noting that none of these relate to past searches (I am sadly not 14 any more), nor to anything else on my account - I'm mostly just following nature photography.

Yet, Pixelfed makes the following suggestions after I enter the initial hashtag. Pixelfed recommending the hashtags "#tits", "#ass", "#milf", and "#pussy"

Searching for anything else doesn't work. No results when searching for #birds

The recommended hashtags, however, seems to work. I have only tried one of them, which (ironically) returns pictures of birds. So it's not like my account is particularly geared towards this type of content. Pictures of birds returned when searching for #tits

I guess this is just some cheeky testing, but might be worth weeding out before it reaches users. Maybe I'm not supposed to be on the F-droid repository. 🙃
