An #accessibility tip I haven't seen here yet!
Capitalizing every word in a run-on set of words like a hashtag is called CamelCase. Using CamelCase helps #screenreaders figure out where the line between words is- like if you said QuitEmail it would understand you meant Quit Email instead of Quite Mail.
Using CamelCase in your #hashtags can make them much more #accessible for #VisuallyImpaired or #Blind readers. It can also make it easier to SEE where the words split.
