Bloggers, can we make better titles for our posts? 30 ▲ Michael Harley 45 days ago · Life · hide · 1 comments I've been scrolling the Bubbles new feed for a few weeks now. I think of it like trolling[1] for good feeds. This is a pretty high-volume feed so I can't click through every post so I end up just reading the title and trying to decide if it's something I'd be interested in reading. As a person on the internet, I have opinions about what makes a good title. Prebuttal # Let me start my list by saying yes, I understand each person can write whatever they like on their blog and in whatever manner they wish. I presume a blogger has submitted their RSS feed to Bubbles because they want people to read what they're writing. Not in a growing my audience kind of way but in a I'm looking for my tribe kind of way. I'm looking for my tribe too. Help me find you! We can be a tribe together. Use descriptive titles # Please for the love of god, give me some idea what your blog post is about. I'm interested in a wide range of topics. So even if your post is about something obscure, give me something… Log in to reply on the Fediverse.

I would like to see aggregators that had a nice way to deal with titleless posts. (BTW, the title element is not required by RSS!)https://blog.vrypan.net/2016/09/23/blog-posts-without-titles/
