Question for the peanut gallery: when using emoji as hashtags (tagmoji) to categorize a post, should they be at the beginning of the post or the end?

Two microblog posts with video clips linking to podcast episodes, one with the 🎙️ emoji at the beginning and one with it at the end.

@maique Right, right. But what looks better to you? 👀

@maique Wow, you sure do! I will indeed accept it! 😁 And that’s the way I’m leaning, probably because I’ve liked them that way on your posts, and it makes it more consistent with my link (🔗) posts.

@jarrod I prefer to use them at the end. To me it’s a tag and tags go after the content. Just my two peanuts worth as it’s all personal preference at the end of the day. Your post and blog, your preferences.

@jarrod I think that tagmojis at the start of the post looks better in archive view on website, where they would otherwise be truncated away. Quite often find myself conflicted between what looks better on site v what looks better on timeline.

@jarrod I generally prefer tags/tagmojis after or within the content…. but then I put them up front which lists better on my site.

@leeperry I think I’m going to try them up front for a bit, at least for posts that just have one, and see how that feels for a bit. 🙂 Thanks for chiming in!
