This a thread for describing new styles of fediverse app interface that we could see ourselves using. Each post is a new idea. If you want to comment on an idea, please branch it into its own thread.
Blog + Live posting
Do you remember when some people’s blogs used to have a widget that displayed their Titter posts in a side panel? I guess that was a pre-mobile style of website. But we could do a mobile-friendly spin on it using the fediverse.
The website would have tabs that a viewer could click, to switch between Articles and Notes written by the same account. The tabs could be labeled that way, or as Blog and Live Posts.
It would need an accompanying editor, that would allow the account operator(s) to switch at posting time, between posting a Notes
and an Articles . Although any post over a N characters (eg 500) could be posted by default as a Note.
Ideally, the site would also have some way for readers to pay a subscription. So they can financially support writers whose work they read a lot.
