Post

I wish people would post more links to interesting things I feel like Twitter and LinkedIn and Instagram and TikTok have pushed a lot of people out of the habit of doing that, by penalizing shared links in the various "algorithms" Bluesky doesn't have that misfeature, thankfully!

(In my ideal world everyone would get their own link blog too, but sharing links on Bluesky and Mastodon is almost as good)

Just published some detailed notes on my current approach to running my own link blog simonwillison.net/2024/Dec/22/...

Yeah I post a lot of stuff from my phone, nothing fancy though - assemble my writing in Apple Notes (for backup, spelling correction and free sync to my laptop in case I want to switch devices) and then paste it into the Django Admin which is pretty good on mobile

Gotcha thanks. Building something similar for my Jekyll site but never quite found a good mobile workflow....

I wrote a simple telegram bot to post microblogs to my website. I got most of it working in a day. It's a simple set up.
