@Otome-chan
I can confirm that posts aren't sent to multiple magazines (yet) and it seems like kbin scans to sort only to the first # or @. And if you post to one magazine with tags meant to be picked up by another that other magazine still won't pick it up.

@cendawanita I wonder what happens if two magazines have the same tag listed... might be worth trying.

Let me have a test... BRB

Ok the answer from my end: no joy
My Malaysian mutuals and I worked out a fedi-specific tag and I tested it on a regional SEAsian mag just set up @magASEAN and my own personal one for my website @myMOAC (which i just set up today).
Idk what's the order of primacy, i think it's just by luck of what gets scanned and sorted into - the younger magazine captured it in the microblog but not the regional one. It's definitely a bug or current limitation. If i can opt to boost to a magazine instead of my own stream that might an acceptable compromise.
@fediversereport @fediversenews @fediverseobserver @tchambers @m_artigiani @clacke
@cendawanita Interesting. for clarification over here on kbin when we make a microblog post we have to choose which magazine to put it in explicitly. it's just the mastodon ones that get auto-sorted.
