How do you use post kinds? serenawho.com

@matigo lol, I’m guessing you don’t do anything with post kinds then?

@matigo that’s fair, which is why I’m interested to see how other people use it.

@vishae to keep my life simpler, I limit myself to using notes, standard posts (e.g. those with titles), likes, and replies.

• Note: most of my posts that don't reference something else (notes can also include photos)
• Titled Post: longer form writing
• Like: just a big ol' link to the thing I liked
• Reply: link to the source (e.g. what is being replied to) followed by my response

@matigo nope. I fake each with likes and replies. I am not against their use, just didn't like having so many choices when creating a post on my end.

@eli I like your breakdown, but miss the memo. I am from @c school of use 'em all when it comes to Post Kinds. when

@mrkrndvs @vishae I do kind of like to use 'em all don't I? I think I've even created some additional ones along the way. I suppose the key is to have a good use for them and use them regularly. I also tend to do a lot of self-site searching, so having them delineated well helps in that.

I do however, highly recommend using bookmarklets or other micropub methods to make the data collection easier, otherwise, as @matigo mentioned, you're killing an awful lot of time.

@eli you are about a year ahead of me. I am still trying to wrap around things like, webmentions, h-cards and indieweb related things

@klandwehr slow and steady 100% wins the race! Let me know if I can (try) to lend a hand.

@c I also plan to do a lot of searches on my own site, so I agree that using the right post kind would really help me with this.
As for using bookmarklets, I have one in Safari when I’m on the Mac, but on iOS I use this Workflow workflow
