It takes me way too much time to teach students how to share a url from their @wordpress blog and to a specific @wordpress post. Need a little UI love me thinks as the failure rate on first time share is well above 50%.

I wonder if this is a WordPress problem or a problem with URLs in general? The way modern browsers hide information may not help?

I think I am going to change my feed syndicating to @microdotblog to be a category. That way I can then control when I am cross-posting and can separate Twitter and Mastodon conversations.

FWIW that is what I do here. This re will not end up on micro.blog or Twitter I’ve not hooked up mastodon, where I saw your post, yet.

The linked post: Teachers Are Moonlighting As Instagram Influencers To Make Ends Meet and the thread on @audreywatters’s tweet are fascinating.

 

I think of instagram as a nice silo for sharing and liking photos in a casual way (I like being liked too). It went bad when it removed the ‘time’ from the timeline. (I don’t like its lack of interoperability much either).

I don’t think I follow any influencers so this is a world outside my ken.

The idea of using instagram as a way of showing a shiny classroom has some of the same problems at tweeting to my mind. Not that my blogging is a great example of sharing classroom practise.

I am not sure about the Teachers Pay Teachers, concept. I feel a slight distaste, but am not sure why.
