For anyone having issues with the hashtag, there is also and @allautistics (the latter being a recently created group that you can follow and post to).

They are intended for anyone who is (or thinks they might be) autistic (formally or self-diagnosed).

@FrightenedRat @ratcatcher @Gtmlosangeles @allautistics @actuallyautistic This is really tough.
The hashtag has to be short, hard to misunderstand and also should sound nice enough, so that people are willing to use it and it shouldn't make you seem weird for using it to others not familiar with the hashtag...
The best I could come um with is the seemingly most obvious , but that could sound too much like a hashtag to come out as autistic and not to be used regularly.

I was liking @dave 's
I ?
&
@hauchvonstaub 's

but now I think

would work perfectly!

What do other folk think?

Is change possible?

[I wasn't trying to be controlling & suggest that there must be one and only one hashtag that everyone used, but I do think we need one tag with enough of a critical mass to let new members quickly locate a wide and diverse community.]
