@Nepenthe I think on #kbin as it looks right now a microblog post could be easily missed if the magazine is very active but the thing is that when federation works they could also go on all the federated microblogging instances and on the home of the followers. This way they could get "points" from favs and boosts and be more visible here as well.
They could also be useful to comment realtime events, even though this will probably be a problem for the rest of the fediverse because here you don't need to put an hashtag and it's not easy for people to selectively mute them so they would probably mute the user.
I'm not sure, because when you create a new post you have to select the magazine and that's already enough to end in the right place so people that don't care about federation in theory don't have an incentive to use hashtags.
Am I interpreting correctly that if I were to, say, make some random comment about being sick as a dog in a microblog, that might get picked up by accounts interested in dogs? If I understand that, that seems like a disastrous oversight.
I guess the sentence you wrote would be fine if you don't use the hashtag dog but even if you did I'm still not sure it would get picked by magazine fetching that hashtag because you are already posting from "inside" a magazine.
@bouddeun top right, select "Subscribed" from the drop down menu near your nickname. If you're redirected, click again on microblog and it should work.
@bouddeun oops, sorry, I misinterpreted. Right now I'm not sure if it's possible because the focus seems to be filtering content from other platforms but I think if it's not already available it's one of those options that will probably be added.
@RobW I'm no expert of the genre but I've seen "The Innocents" last year and I loved it. The atmosphere is close to "Let the right one in" but this is way better IMO
