Mastodon (Bluesky/X/Instagram) is not the right platform for posting long-form content (a blog is)

Stefano Marinelli@82mhz I agree. I've decided to use an hybrid approach: a blog post that will also be "posted" by snac. So people can:
- come to my blog and read it there
- read it (entirely) using their RSS Feed reader
- read it from the Fediverse, using their own instance and their own app
But yes, the best place for long posts is a blog.
@stefano I think that's a good approach that you've chosen, having a separate profile only for the posts, so peope can choose to follow or not, but you're not cluttering up the timeline with 14 individual posts per blog post.
I always get the link to your posts via RSS and then come to your site to read. Then I come back here to shitpost about it 😜
