Is this a frowned upon practice or something that doesn’t matter?
You might like kbin better. It’s like a hybrid of Lemmy and Mastodon.
Join on fedia.io or readit.buzz, both very stable kbin instances
You can do it, I don’t think most admins would find issue with that.
But I believe Mastodon would work better as a blog.
Yeah I agree with the Mastodon suggestion. Lemmy would work but Mastodon probably makes more sense.
How would you do that? Each and every Toot is isolated and a far distance away from the “blog post from yesterday” - there is no blog roll or similar. (Yes, tags may help to find all of your blog posts, but…)
Here in #kbin you would create your own unique magazine - with your own rules. And you can enforce the rules because you are (the only) moderator. In a magazine you get an index page with a list of your blog posts for example.
Perhaps I should try it… if only I had topics to put into a blog… :-)
Have fun!
I doubt anyone would care if you did that, but it does sound like you’d get more use out of joining https://kbin.social/. They are part of the federated universe and have a dedicated microblog section.
You can also join fedia.io or readit.buzz, both are very stable kbin instances
i was thinking the same. I also saw paper.wf talked about as a real blog, but i think its pretty limited at the moment
Wordpress has an ActivityPub plugin if people want a full-featured blog on the fediverse. AFAIK is only works if you’re self-hosting Wordpress, though.
I say go for it if you want to, people have the ability to block or subscribe to content they do or don’t want to see
I don’t see why you wouldn’t be able to. You sort of get comments built in for free!
You could mark a community as read only except for mods too.
One thing to keep in mind though is that the urls are usually ids instead of something more seo friendly if you care about that.
More content is probly good content right now. Ive been going around treating comments like my own personal journal Makin a fool out of myself lol. Id probly sub to this. F it.
How bout like a “life story in under xx amount of words” community? I’d dig that too.
I’d like the ability to post on our own profiles. you could do things that way if that was added
i say go for it
im noone but i think it sounds cool. more people doin more shit here is prolly a good thing
