Change displayed information in #tags view

Okay but if I follow a tag tag and don't want to be visible, that option must be present.

Configurability doesn't always imply the code complexity. And speaking of federation, I'm not sure this will be a problem if we stick to the profiles which have already been pushed on the pod and the local profiles.

@lebarjack, if someone who follows a tag wants to be found by others who share the same interest, they can add that tag to the 'describe yourself in 5 words' field in profile settings. Then they will appear in the list of people on the tag's page.

@steffenvanbergerem, what factors/issues are we meant to be considering in this vote, if not privacy?

@goob Privacy is IMO in this case not an issue because one could (should) make this feature optional. What should be decided is: do we need it? When we implement it there will be more code complexity and we would have to put the setting somewhere. Should the user be able to decide for each tag if he/she would like to make the tag following public or should there be a setting which decides that for all tags? Do we want to share that information across pods or do we just show a list of users who follow a tag on your own pod?

As a user I don't want to use that feature (because of privacy issues) so I think that all that effort is not necessary. Thats the reason why I voted against that feature.

@Goob You have a point with the privacy problem that can occur, but I do think that those 5 tags are not really adapted to the goal of making easier to find new friendly contacts.

Of course, every one interested in a topic will probably make a public post on this topic at some point, and will end up being findable by searching for the tag. Maybe it's sufficient.

@jasonrobinson There is no such feature yet and I did not add anything about the design in the proposal so there is no need for a redesign.

@steffenvanbergerem I believe I am entitled to cite my opinion whatever the vote is about ;)
