I had an idea a long time ago where you can mark a post as a general topic (meta-nostr, bitcoin, functional programming) and for people who don’t want to see your posts about those topics can opt out of them in their feed. Or they can choose to follow specific topics from you.

This would allow me to post about the things I want to post about without alienating people who don’t want to hear my bitcoin posts.

Are you doing this with hashtags or something else? If more than hashtag, please take a look at something I came up with this weekend for labeling posts…

https://github.com/s3x-jay/nostr-nips/blob/master/68.md

Once I get nostr:npub1wmr34t36fy03m8hvgl96zl3znndyzyaqhwmwdtshwmtkg03fetaqhjg240's feedback, we'll put it up as a PR. But the "unstructured labeling" section would handle the use case you're talking about. Would even let people label things after the fact if they forgot to label it when they posted it.

It could be hashtags but without a #hashtag in the content. Could add another label next to the hashtag to mark it as a topic (could have multiple as well)

So you’re using a `t` tag. That works, it just can’t be corrected after the fact if they don’t get the tagging right (which admittedly isn’t the end of the world or anything).
