most people on here don't bother, but i do see a few who tag like on e621
i just do a few tags, myself

Was pretty sure but yeah it does seem like most people don't use them

I used to use them like 10+ years ago, but then I started uploading in waves and decided to just ditch the keywords altogether
I don't normally look at them either when I browse through art by other people, nor do I search by them
FA search works by the title and description as well, after all

Yeah as it works fine by description is why I've never bothered. Kind of glad it seems like most people don't use them, since I don't have to change what I'm doing

I agree, it's really reassuring to know that

If the system was like e621 I'd use it.
But as it is on FA, I barely ever used it and found tagging to be unnecessary extra work with little reward.

I always throw important ones on there, especially if there are more niche kinks. I definitely think it leads to random favorites way later from people searching for keywords :p

I totally use them when searching for art for a specific kink or species.
