After much anticipation, Threads has finally added hashtags to its platform.
This long-awaited feature will allow users to better categorize their posts and discover conversations on specific topics.
When composing a Threads post, you start a tag by tapping the # symbol and then typing out your topic. But instead of being limited to just one word, you can type out a whole phrase (with spaces!) and add special characters, according to Mosseri. However, you can only make one tag per post.

With the addition of hashtags, Threads now offers a more versatile and user-friendly experience. Users can now add a single hashtag to each post, making it easier for their close friends to find and join relevant conversations. This feature also opens up the possibility for users to participate in broader discussions beyond their immediate circle of friends.
