I’ve been very reluctant to set defaults for syndication, making options be selected each time instead. This is a bit problematic because I like to reduce friction.
The issue is that I don’t want them to be global. I want them to be a bit more granular.
For example, a hallmark of a note for me is that is doesn’t have an explicit title. Maybe I want all notes to go to all services that support them unless I say otherwise….
I am worried about a mistake I made years ago involving importing old posts… so the code needs to check the published date and not post anything old automatically.
Responses to URLs on a syndication site should automatically go out to that site…but not necessarily to other sites.
I had a discussion about this with my Indieweb associates at IndieWebCamp San Diego and I’m still not sure what I’ll end up doing.
