Hi everyone,

#tag suggestions and #category suggestions only work mid-sentence and never at the start of a new line.

For example, here’s a mid-sentence example that works: #po

And here’s a new line / start of line that doesn’t work, zero suggestions are offered:

#po

I can’t seem to find any reference to it.

It provides a very mixed user experience.

Is this by design?
