The thing that trips me up about making hashtags accessible on social media, by capitalizing each word JustLikeThis, are words like WordPress, or ActivityPub.
I'm guessing these should be all lowercase, so that screen readers don't read these as two separate words?
I'm really starting to see the benefits of allowing spaces in hashtags.

Nope, those are fine as-is. Screen readers already read them as distinct words. Which is what you want and which you want to retain when you hashtag them.

I have to admit that on Tumblr I do hashtags like I do here — conjoined words. Easier for me to stick to one approach regardless of platform.
