Not sure if it is deliberate but I donโt see why it would be. My issue is sometimes I do #icloud and sometimes it autocorrects to #iCloud and itโs split them up
Yep I have to make sure all of my tags are all lowercase to avoid this issue. iOS likes to autocorrect and add in capital letters, so I have to make sure I stop it doing so every time I tag something.
I donโt think itโs a โbugโ per se - but a silly oversight.
The majority of users want tags to work for the same word - I canโt see a situation where the benefit of being able to have different tags depending on capitals/non-capitals outweighs the downside of autocorrect messing up your tagging process.
