If # is the character to start a hashtag, what is the character to start a geohash?

For instance, if we use ∆, then every time somebody writes ∆, it turns into the City name with a link that opens all notes that tagged that city.

Same character can bring up a list of locations just like @ brings up a list of user names.

Ideas?

It needs to be easy to type. It must exist on all keyboards.

! works for me, it’s like a pin, as you mentioned in another reply. Regarding NIP-30, I think it would be great if we could link the geohash in the content with a ‘g’ tag and add information such as the place name. We could render its name directly without decoding it or relying on other services that mostly return only the country or city name. This would allow us to specify the place’s name ourselves if we want, similar to POIs on Google Maps.
