    I doubt people that actually send emails to the list use #hashtags.

    But the new list server provides this posting feature for anyone to
    address
    the list and requests poster to add #hashtags - very annoying, indeed:

    https://lists.yoctoproject.org/g/yocto/post


there is that. And looking at the history on the server, most of the existing tags came from the web. But a hashtag is created automatically when using '#' in the email subject. that's how #define was created:
https://lists.yoctoproject.org/g/yocto/message/48686

and this email created #hashtags ;-)

I haven't found a way to disable it.. from what I can see we can
1. force every message to have at least one hashtag...
2. bounce message with a new hashtag in $subject
3. remove new hashtag when used in $subject

I don't think we need to change anything.
I found it annoying at first because I didn't know about the
archive tagging feature.

I think we will need to do some tests to see what #3 does.. But in any case, I don't think we can prevent users from creating hashtags from the web..

Is that causing any issues with patches workflow?

I am not aware of any workflow problems.
