Site change: Reviews moved to their own page
After some deliberation I have decided to split off all of my reviews into their own separate page. Introducing: FWD:RE:views.
For RSS readers if follow the existing beag feed you should not see any changes. If you follow the bog and want to still see reviews you can add the new reviews feed to your newsreader.
To sum up the new situation quickly:
- New—FWD:RE:views: reviews
- Modified—Bog: original posts + Fediverse posts
- Unchanged—Beag: only original posts
I enjoy logging what I’m watching but I haven’t been happy with how all the stuff I was copying over from other sites drowning out my other posts. I was originally thinking about it in terms of my original posts versus “syndicated” stuff and was considering making the “beag” page the default and a separate one for everything else but I after ruminating on it I decided it made more sense to me to split just the reviews out as their own thing. I took my time before making this decision as I didn’t want to end up changing up my RSS feeds repeatedly and making a mess of people’s newsreaders.
The title FWD:RE:views is meant to reflect how most of the reviews are “forwarded” from my Letterboxd, Serializd, Backloggd and Goodreads accounts but there is currently one review that isn’t and there may be more if I want to log other things that don’t have entries in the databases of those website.
