I'm proposing that when you search for a hashtag, Maps recommends other related hashtags for you to see the results of. I have thought of two ways to implement this:
So, if someone searches for #cupcake some related hashtags that can be tapped would appear below the search text box, in this case it could be #cupcakes, #muffin, #muffins, etc.
In this way, when the searcher keeps scrolling down and reaches the end of the results, there could be a text that warned that the following results are from related hashtags, specifying of which related hashtag in each of the related results. So, if someone searches for #cupcake, again, when there are no more posts of #cupcake, it could show results of #cupcakes, and others.
Here are some reasons of why I think it would be great to show related hashtags or related results:
In all of these situations, the searcher won't be able to truly take advantage of the hashtags feature, and the places where reviews that don't show up in the results were made won't be considered.
The searcher can try to brainstorm of other hashtags that mean the same or are similar, or search for a translation, but not many people would think of that, or would want to, especially if they didn't get that many results in the first place.
With the related hashtags:
i'm sure you can think of other situations.
It would also be great although probably complicated to also implement this: when someone searches for #vegetarian, they would see related results of #vegan, but when someone searches for #vegan, it shouldn't show the results for #vegetarian. This could also be applied to other dietary restrictions.
I'm sure there are many more ways to solve this problems and/or show the related results, if you have other ideas please write them in the comments!
