Tag Wrangling
Whenever you post a note containing tags, you can choose whether to make those tags canonical. This means that, for instance, the tags #run and #running become the 'same', meaning that when you click on the link for the #run tag, you'll also see notes tagged #running. You can opt out of the behaviour by unchecking the "Make note tags canonical". An identical process occurs for people tags.
Internally, this transformation is accomplished by splitting the tag into words and stemming each word.
Tag feeds
When you click on a tag, be it a note tag or a person tag, you'll see a feed of notes/people with that tag. You can also edit the feeds you see in your left panel, so you can follow a given tag.
Related Tags
In a tag feed, you can see tags that are often used together with the one you're seeing. This can be useful, for instance, for finding other content you'd be interested in.
Muteable Self Tags and Note Tags
If you don't like seeing a given tag in your feeds, for whatever reason, you can choose to mute it. You can mute a note tag or a person tag, in which case you wouldn't see any notes from people with that tag.
