As a big fan of @standard.site I wanted to write down some thoughts on where I think it could improve and grow, highlighting some of the rough edges I have bumped into. I would love to just see this grow! jola.dev/posts/though...

jola.devthoughts on standard.sitestandard.site is a huge success as an atproto community lexicon, but there's some stuff we can improve, let's talk about it!

On the first two points I believe the team is planning to fix the TID constraint and move to at-tags!

I didn’t fully follow the point you were making about backlinking though, was wondering if you could expand on that? What does the content field have to do with discoverability via backlinking?

Constellation reads records that come through and check them for URLs. If the document content field contains URLs, it means it can record backlinks from the document to other records. So that's discoverability via backlinking! Not of the record itself, but of other things

ah gotcha! worth noting that the `links` field that can be used as a replacement for providing content.
