@manton But if the new thing is a really good thing it might move some subs up the value chain.

@manton yes .. I have a similar category .. originally created based on ‘title/no title’ … the curation is the problem —- new stuff is fine .. it’s the archive 😣 and that’s what got me to thinking how might you manage the aggregation?

@manton I am a big fan of the RSS feed for LongForm .. got me to wondering how you automatically make that feed. If just ‘does it have a title’ .. to my mind won’t work well … I have a lot of my posts with titles on my blog that I would not want to include in my ‘long read’ feed because they are just letterbox Reviews that come in automatically with a title. Nor do I want to include a title feed that has posts with a title .. and one line in the body .. etc etc .. have you had any thoughts as to how you are going to manage it?

for example .. on my list I have a new category that I have been thinking about implementing … ‘one liners’ (let’s call it the UnLongRead) … still not cracked what I mean exactly … that I can then codify to run a script to add the category. It’s hard.
