I actually didn’t know that! Any idea if comments are good for boosting skeets?

doucette515.bsky.social•107 days ago

Comments can help because your followers see your comment and may click through to see the rest of the post. That’s my understanding currently.

What are you using for your home page to see posts? Writing Community or Following?

doucette515.bsky.social•106 days ago

I generally sit over on the Kid Lit Mega Feed. Sometimes I hop over to following, or to the Kid Lit Editors feed, or to one of the poetry feeds. But mainly I stay on the kid lit mega feed. Except during #KidLitChat. I use Deck.Blue for that and follow their KidLit chat feed, notifications, and home.

Thanks! I've got the KitLit Mega Feed, but didn't have some of the others. ❤️

This is really good to know, thank you Christiana.

Thank you for this! I'm new here and love learning about it.

doucette515.bsky.social•107 days ago

That’s exactly why I shared it! Because there are slight differences between platforms. And how will someone know unless they hear about it. 😊

(liking still helps tho, it's not useless in the algorithm)

dtdelosh.bsky.social•107 days ago

good to know.

kristinwrites.bsky.social•105 days ago

Good to know! Thanks for the tip

doucette515.bsky.social•105 days ago

I’m so so HAPPY to see you here! ❤️🫂

kristinwrites.bsky.social•105 days ago

I’m a bit overwhelmed. But I’m gonna give it a good try.

doucette515.bsky.social•105 days ago

You’re doing great! There’s a lot of similarities to Twitter. Like the Feeds work like pinned lists used to. But Starter Packs are their own thing here. And a really helpful feature for finding people with similar interests I think.

Are replies also considered?

doucette515.bsky.social•107 days ago

Somewhat. But the best is to repost. That shows the post you appreciated to your followers, where commenting may show your comment to your followers who might click to see more.

mcclowny.bsky.social•107 days ago

Gotcha. Thanks. See you tonight for #kidlitchat?

doucette515.bsky.social•107 days ago

I plan to be there!
