Microblogs are an interesting thing. I was never able to get into Twitter or Mastodon because it feels so disorganized and chaotic to me. That said, I think microblog compatibility is low key one of Kbin’s best features with a lot of potential. The problem is that right now it seems like kbin doesn’t really know what to do with it.
This is where I wonder if a dedicated Kbin app like Artemis could really carry it further. Has there been any discussion on this yet? How would you imagine microblogs being better implemented with Artemis?
It was a matter of get-used-to for me. Having subscriptions and the possibility to either place a thread or just a quick post was for me a feature I didn‘t know I wished for. I just need to look after microblogs the same way I look at threads… and therefore I hope that the implementation in Artemis will be likewise to Threads but still having it split one from another - pretty much how kbin has it on its own already
