Maybe I'm over-looking something obvious, but when I search I only find the page with the top 100 tags (https://dev.to/tags) but I'm wondering where I can find all the tags, thanks

As always, one has to be careful what one askes for... At the time of this writing "all" means 44676 tags.1
The tags can be found at dev.to/api/tags.
By default this will only return the top 10 most popular tags.
This number can be increased to 1000 by using the
per_pageparameter.Subsequent pages can be retrieved by using the
pageparameter.Just keep increasing the page number until the JSON response is an empty array
[].2To give an idea how this could be done, I created this Gist: gist.github.com/Potherca/da6e1cfec...
It can be seen in action here: bl.ocks.org/Potherca/raw/da6e1cfec...
Right now the last page is dev.to/api/tags?per_page=1000&page=45. No doubt it will soon be page 46.
At this point, you might be wondering how I knew about the API... Well, I didn't. When searching the source-code on Github, I found the API controller for tags: github.com/thepracticaldev/dev.to/...
With a bit of effort, I figured the rest out from there. 😄
1 Visit bl.ocks.org/Potherca/raw/da6e1cfec... if you want a real-time count.
2 An empty array means there are no more tags to be retrieved.
Maybe add the
#discussand#helptags to this?
