Likely because folks don’t know, I got referred to this post looking for solution to link search words to topics and my default reaction was to install this component. I didn’t even realize that watched words existed. It’s so cool how much I learn about discourse every time I try to optimize it.
If you’re okay I’m going to edit the first post to let folks know that watched words exist and may be an out of box fit. Also this theme is marked as official so if it’s a duplicate of watched words maybe consider depreciating it or indicating it on the first post.
