#Social networks
Social networks are the platforms where a blog’s readers spend their time, from large feeds such as Facebook, LinkedIn and X to newer or more specialised spaces such as Bluesky, Threads, Mastodon, Reddit and Telegram. Each network has its own culture, post format, link handling and rules about self-promotion. What works on one often falls flat or even gets removed on another. Articles under this tag look at individual networks from the point of view of someone who publishes articles and wants them read. They cover how links and previews behave, what kind of post text suits each audience, and how often it is reasonable to share. The aim is practical guidance for choosing the networks worth your effort and using them without spamming anyone.
