There's currently one analysis included in this tool: aggregating hashtags common to a specified hashtag. There are likely other useful analyses that researchers and journalists are interested in, including

Generating network graph of related hashtags (e.g. nodes are hashtags and edge weight between nodes is the number of posts that contain both hashtags)

If you encounter other interesting workflows involving TikTok, let us know in the comments of this issue.

Plotting the frequencies for a combination of hashtags would be useful.

Use case: Tried to have a look at posts around the #hanau shooting - which is a bit noisy due to posts not related to the shooting. Trying #saytheirnames is overlayed by posts related to George Floyd, and I would like to filter for the combination of the two to be able to scan for the relevant hashtags.
