 As blogs from #wordpress, #ghostcms #microdotblog and others federate in, I'm trying to get everyone to use the tag #Fediblogs to make those posts discoverable and searchable. As podcasts from @Castopod MicrodotBlog, and @funkwhale, #PodcastIndex others federate... I'm trying to push for the use of the tag #Fedicasts to become a common way to search and find federated podcast episodes. Who's with me? cc: @dave @manton @dave @pfefferle 5 comments
@boris I do think upgrading Fediverse searching by post type is intriguing but think hashtags could be an interim step that helps!  @tchambers I also don’t really understand why I would want to tag something “blog” I do cross posting from multiple tools and my goal is to use tags to help in discovery of the content, as it is native to the AP experience. So if it’s Fediverse related I add that hashtag, Food related I add that, etc Fun fact: microdotblog only does title + link for blogs with a title. Shorter posts just look like regular mastodon posts. @tchambers interesting 🤔 I use my wordpress blog mainly to publish via Podlove Publisher my podcast format, so Fedicast would be the better tag 🏷️ for this content.  @tchambers Sure, lets give this a shot. I'll participate with my blogs ( @LaurensHof@fediversereport.com and @laurenshof@laurenshof.online ) as well |

@tchambers There’s already the field that is visible from what tool is posting.
Mastodon search could be upgraded to show all posts made by Castopod.
Or, actually post of type Podcast rather than everything being a Note.
And blogs can post as Article.
Let’s not get stuck on what Mastodon can do and really exercise the ActivityPub protocol.
