Revision as of 03:46, 23 September 2024
"Interests" is a somewhat ambiguous name for a thing that's intended to be clear. Intended use: topics that this user may write about, which they want to be visible and discoverable.
But what word or short phrase is better?
D's 2024 Sept 22 RFC: https://bsky.app/profile/rahaeli.bsky.social/post/3l4s47m3mea26
Contents
History
This is inherited from LiveJournal; Brad's initial phrasing, with the unfortunate example 'words that could end the sentence "I like ___" ', which had gnarly implications down the line and was the proximate cause of notable LJ disaster Strikethrough (ptooie).
Proposals
Serious
- Topic tags (D) -- confusable with journal tags
- Keywords (D) -- (connotes something else to Kareila)
- Topic keywords (D)
- Topics
- "something to do with 'connection'" (Lassarina)
- Interests (Doranwen still likes it)
- Channels (bsky acct)
- predilections (Dan Martinez) https://bsky.app/profile/hivehand.cc/post/3l4s5gmzsaw2k
- Something one is excited about (but not sure how to turn that into an applicable noun) (Lassarina)
- Obsessions (MadGastronomer)
- Fascinations (MadGastronomer & Azz) -- D likes, but would need a lot of explaining
- Passions (Kareila) -- (does sound like a romance novel series, is definitely a soap opera, "graphic design is my passion")
- Enthusiasms (MadGastronomer)
- things I like that you might like too (h2)
- "things that are important to me" (D) -- by way of example in https://bsky.app/profile/rahaeli.bsky.social/post/3l4s4g4vnmf2e
- "things that I am into" (D) -- by way of example in https://bsky.app/profile/rahaeli.bsky.social/post/3l4s4g4vnmf2e
Reframing the prompts
