From Dreamwidth Notes
Revision as of 03:19, 23 September 2024 by AzureLunaticDW (Talk | contribs)
"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.

History
This is inherited from LiveJournal; Brad's initial phrasing, words that could end the sentence "I like ___" had gnarly implications down the line.
But what word or short phrase is better?
Proposals
Serious
- Topic tags (D) -- confusable with journal tags
- Keywords (D) -- (connotes something else to Kareila)
- Topic keywords (D)
- Topics
- Something one is excited about (but not sure how to turn that into an applicable noun) (Lassarina)
- Obsessions (MadGastronomer)
- Fascinations (MadGastronomer)
- 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)
Unserious
- likes (Kareila)
- "this is good" (D, for Mark)
Discarded Proposals
In Use Elsewhere
- Subjects (D) -- (connotes something else to Kareila and also it's in use)
- Tags (Kareila) -- brought up as a That's Not This
- theme (D) -- in use elsewhere
