Finishing up a new integration on @write_as (announcing soon), and looking at our cross-posting usage. It's really fallen off -- only 4 posts sent out this year. I think the feature made the most sense when Twitter was around.
Places we send out #WriteAs posts upon publishing:
- locally
- Integrations (cross-posting)
- ActivityPub
- Email
Places we render posts:
- Blog index (web)
- Blog post (web)
- https://tiny.write.as (web)
- https://read.write.as (web)
- API (json)
- RSS feed
Each has its own requirements and small differences -- what metadata do we reveal or send along? what content do we show? what format is it in? etc.
Okay, got the #fediverse side of things working. The publishing and rendering side of #WriteAs / #WriteFreely really is a mess. Needs a major refactor
