Quick Question about Tags

[cloud cove]

1. Can tags be applied to entities
2. If tags can be applied to entities, can those tags be applied to individual entities?
3. Can individual players be added to a tag?
4. Are tags easily mutable? Aka can I remove/add tags to entities without requiring a reload?

1. tags can be applied to entity types starting in 1.18.2

2. no, individual entity "tags" are just strings stored on the entity nbt, only entity types can actually be added to tags

3. see 2

4. what do you mean by this?

3 and 4 are based on question 2,

I was just trying to get a better technical understanding of Tags.
I’m not using this info to make a modpack or anything just wanted to understand how they work.

What tags

there are at least three things called tags that can be applied to entities

Data tags (data/namespace/tags/entity_type), non binary tags (nbt) and entity tags (/tag command, what kjs gamestages uses)

No wonder I get so confused.
I was only familiar with NBT data and the kind of tags used for blocks and items.
