The tags on every story are clickable links, both at the top and bottom of the story.
The real under-use of tags is by the people posting stories. Many don't bother to add any, others use unique ones that return just that one story, or only use one or two basic ones, with the one often being the category name.
Yes, I know they were already links, I was just mentioning that I'm pleased that I can see them and use on the cards in the hub now. Have been for a while, but I figured it was worth pointing it out since a fair few people on this thread didn't know about the expanded cards, so they might not know about the links either.
My favorites are the one where it's a person's name. Like "Susan." How is that a useful tag?
What is the point of doing it?
As a niche reader, I find almost all my stories through tags. It pains me to think how many I miss because somebody doesn't use them. You get up to 10. Use them.
I can vaguely imagine that some people like to read about characters who have the same name as they do, or they know someone in real life with a certain name and like to fantasize about them. That being said, it's still a pretty poor tag choice.
Do a regular search with the name as the only keyword and you'll get them all.
Although most stories contain the word "the," some might not. You can get a slightly more accurate count of the total number of stories by searching for " " (a single space) or "." (a single period).
While I can't imagine a story without "the" in it, I didn't think of searching for either of those as many search engines don't include them properly. Not here, but when I tried searching for S.A.M.S. recently, almost everything I got back was about Sam's Club.
