I just think it’s great that they integrate at all. They’re such different forum layouts that there’s no really sensible way to do it – but on a good day, posts can be seen, with threaded comments, and that’s great especially if you want to follow a specific user.

I love that communities appear as special users who just sit there all day boosting posts from other people. A creative way of blending the two paradigms.

I’ll usually link new posts on Mastodon, and besides that I’ll send links to individual people who I think might be interested.

It’s not something I try to promote widely – more to share my own thoughts with people I know.

After getting sick of Wordpress.com, I now self-host mine. I use Nikola, a static site generator that makes things pretty lightweight and easy.

One for the philosophers.
