Hmm, actually it doesn’t look like it does work. In fact, it may be worse than Lemmy. I can see @saltywizard@beige.party’s hashtags (as actual hashtags) in Lemmy, but not here on Piefed.
But I can’t see my own hashtags in either platform.
edit: wait, looks like both Lemmy and Piefed may work. I can see saltywizard’s hashtags as tags on the default Piefed UI, but not in Blorp, which is my preferred Piefed client.
Blorp dev here. I’m not sure I understand hashtags well enough to implement them yet. From what I can tell, @saltywizard@beige.party either manually linked the hashtag to Mastadon, or more likely, whatever client they used inserted the link when they types the hashtag.
I don’t think Lemmy or Piefed support hashtags. Personally, I often just do it anyway. See a post without transcription, transcribe it.
Better if OPs do it themselves, but volunteers taking on the effort without need to request permission/be told to do it is second best.
PieFed does support it, not sure if it shows up on Masto though.

To demonstrate my point:
In Blorp, 1 is clickable for me, but 2 isn’t. Depending on what client you’re using, 2 may get auto linked.
Oh neat! #cool
Piefed tags appear as Mastodon hashtags, however they may be different, eg Mastodon removes spaces
