Should I add hashtags to Lemmy posts (lemmy.ml)

Ive always wondered. - Should I be adding relevant hashtags to Lemmy posts related to the subject of the post to make the content more findable on other Activitypub services?

I can only speak for how it shows up on Mastodon, but over there any hashtags we try and add here just show up as plain text and don't show in the actual tag feed, so it does nothing for discoverability.
