Capitalization affects how people read hashtags or how people hear them on screen readers. Use #camelCase or #PascalCase in hashtags instead of lowercase. You could have #DoctorWhoRewatch ("Doctor Who Rewatch") or #doctorwhorewatch ("doctor whore watch.")

PSA from the Bluesky "It's A Feature, Not A Bug" files: when you post your hashtags, it's good to use #PascalCase (capitalize each word in the tag). That'll allow screen readers to pronounce the tags in a comprehensible way. But that works everywhere, not just here on Bluesky.

Why is the use of PascalCase (where you capitalise each word) important in a hashtag?

So #LookingAtIt isn't misinterpreted or read by screen readers incorrectly and you don't end up #LookingATit

Always #PascalCase

Capitalization affects how people read hashtags or how people hear them on screen readers. Use #camelCase or #PascalCase in hashtags instead of lowercase. You could have #SuperBowl ("Super Bowl") or #superbowl ("superb owl.") And while owls are indeed superb, confusing hashtags are not.

#PascalCase is the same thing as #CamelCase, right?

If you have a hashtag with multiple words, write the hashtag in #PascalCase or #camelCase to help users of screen readers. That helps the screen reader to read out the words out individually, rather than trying to read them in one long word.

userId in snakeCase languages.

UserId in PascalCase languages.
