I thought Twitter was a platform designed to focus on topics where users can easily participate in using hashtags.
I placed a hashtag in my first couple of tweets, and when I click it to show the list, I cannot find my tweet in there, even if I switch from top to all tweets.
Is there some kind of requirement to see it, like a minimum amount of followers? I've checked that tweet privacy is unchecked under account settings. I've gone through the faq as well but I can't find anything of use.

Your tweets with hashtags thus far have all also contained links. They aren't showing up due to the omission/filtering out of tweets containing links/urls from Twitter discussions or in Twitter's search. Though this is not an 'official' rule, it seems to be a well documented problem (See Search not returning tweets with a URL)
Twitter's FAQ suggests that this is part of an attempt to combat spam and increase relevance Why are the tweets I'm looking for not in Twitter Search?
