Also maybe important to note that “web” & “blog” (from “weblog”) were new nouns for new interaction mediums. But they’re not branded - that’s what I want

Hmm how about “micropost”? Says exactly what it is. Kinda long, but so is weblog. If people want to shorten it, it can become “micro” or even “mic”.

Microblog/micropost are already the standard terms to encompass short posts on twitter, mastodon, etc: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microblogging

Yeah micropost is the most logical and then just shorten it to “post” for convenience 😉

The ActivityStreams Schema that powers ActivityPub calls them Notes, which differentiates from Article which is long form.
I think post is both the verb and an instance. No “micro” needed.
