Gathering Hashtags from the Fediverse
Thu 08 May 2025
Background
One minor foible of the fediverse instance I'm on is that searching (for accounts or hashtags) can be quite slow. As a workaround for now, I've saved a list of accounts I've followed for easy reference, but I also wanted some way of saving a list of hashtags to refer to.
There are plenty of sites that will give you a list of 10, 20, maybe one hundred currently active hashtags, but for general purposes, I'd really like to have a thousand to look through, because I never know what hashtag might be popular enough to use, but not so popular that it lands in the top twenty or whatnot.
So, I asked around on the fediverse, and was helped greatly by Don Hayward, who gave me the URL and usage.
The one-liner
So, here is how I generated the list:
for ((x=0; x<1000; x+=20)); do curl -sL "https://mastodon.social/api/v1/trends/tags?limit=20&offset=$x" |grep -o '"name":"[^"]*"' |cut -f4 -d\"; echo $x; sleep $(($RANDOM/1500)); done |tee fediverse-hashtags.txt
A more readable version:
for ((x=0; x<1000; x+=20))
do
curl -sL "https://mastodon.social/api/v1/trends/tags?limit=20&offset=$x" |grep -o '"name":"[^"]*"' |cut -f4 -d\"
echo $x #show progress
sleep $(($RANDOM/1500)) #sleep a random amount of time between 0 and 21 seconds to give the server a break and not get flagged
done |tee fediverse-hashtags.txt
The results
Now, strangely, I didn't get 1000 unique results. I couldn't figure out what was wrong until fellow polymath Clayton pointed out that the list probably changed between the various invokations, and so there were some repeats.
So, here are all 1000 *cough* 975 hashtags, as of 2025-05-05:
