I am creating an online community platform where users can post blog-like items. I currently have made a design that displays recent posts, along with a sidebar where users can filter existing posts using categories and tags. Clicking on a posts' title will bring the user to the full article.

The idea is that when a user checks, for example, the tutorial
category along with the Magento 2
tag, only posts with at least these types are displayed and all other items will be hidden, like this picture:
As you can see these categories and tags are also featured in the recent posts. Users can also click on these tags to filter the items on the platform accordingly.
In this case, would it usability-wise be a good idea to also include these tags on recent posts, or does it seem unnecessary and/or confusing should I stick with displaying categories and tags on the sidebar only?
Edit: As DasBeasto asked in the comments, the filtered posts are those that have at least the selected tags.
