"Interests" is a somewhat ambiguous name for a thing that's intended to be clear. Intended use: topics that this user may write about, which they want to be visible and discoverable.
Contents
History
This is inherited from LiveJournal; Brad's initial phrasing, words that could end the sentence "I like ___" had gnarly implications down the line.
But what word or short phrase is better?
Proposals
Serious
- Topic tags (D) -- confusable with journal tags
- Keywords (D) -- (connotes something else to Kareila)
- Topic keywords (D)
- Topics
- "something to do with 'connection'" (Lassarina)
- Interests (Doranwen still likes it)
- Channels (bsky acct)
- Something one is excited about (but not sure how to turn that into an applicable noun) (Lassarina)
- Obsessions (MadGastronomer)
- Fascinations (MadGastronomer & Azz) -- D likes, but would need a lot of explaining
- Passions (Kareila) -- (does sound like a romance novel series, is definitely a soap opera, "graphic design is my passion")
- Enthusiasms (MadGastronomer)
- things I like that you might like too (h2)
Reframing the prompts
- "things I am interested in" with helpful examples (genres of movie or book, bands) (lassarina, +1 from Doranwen)
- "I'd like to talk about..." (Lassarina)
- "I'd like to read about..." (Kareila)
Unserious
- likes (Kareila)
- "this is good" (D, for Mark)
- Yelling (Azz)
- bumper stickers (Azz)
- special interests (MadGastronomer)
- favorite things (Kareila)
- what did MySpace call it (Lassarina)
- favorite vibes (Lassarina) (Kareila likes "vibes" but, even more confusing to new users)
- blorbos (Kareila) https://bsky.app/profile/kareila.bsky.social/post/3l4s5jwxhva2g
Discarded Proposals
In Use Elsewhere
- Subjects (D) -- (connotes something else to Kareila and also it's in use)
- Tags (Kareila) -- brought up as a That's Not This
- theme (D) -- in use elsewhere
