Same with writing numbers in your posts! ;o; Twit made so many people use number emojis instead and I can guarantee that's a pain in the ass for anyone using screenreader tech

Howdy. Newbie here. Sorry to ask you, but you are the first person I've seen to comment on something like this. Where's the instruction manual for this place? I can't find it (sigh). I never had twitter/instagram etc. Only reddit. Have no idea how to add hashtags, links etc.

BlueSky: The social media platform that realizes that if we're following an artist/writer/small business, we probably want to actually buy stuff from them.

In othe words, keep circulating the links!

Yes!! It's a difficult thing to unlearn, I'm always moving my links to the replies but then I remember I don't have to do that here!! Direct links in the first post will get you SO many more click throughs, do it people!

Love seeing links! So many times I have to go through many hoops to actually find what the artist is talking about and sometimes not even in the bio is there a link and like just let me make it easy to support your amazing work. 😭

Yep, and the harder it is for someone to buy something the less likely they are to buy it.
