Similar post was made on the .world lemmy community but I banned from there and some people don’t federate world so I though I’d ask here too to see how the answers differ.

fossilesque is a big one for me that I didn’t see in the .world post

    No, they’re for you as the user only.

    I mostly use them to 1) track interesting people like there’s a user on here who’s a Jellyfin Roku app developer. I don’t remember their username, but pay attention to their comments when I see the user tag I set for them 2) people who are bad faith trolls whose usernames I won’t remember but don’t want to get sucked into investing time answering their questions when they’ll just be racist asshats in response.
