wait no ignore this comment I totally misunderstood this feed

in case of confusingness, this is a hub for non-DW blogs!

Honestly, I'm not against friending accounts with this, either, so people can have a seamlessly interwoven on/off DW blog experience, what do you think? The one downside is it reduces autonomy: DW accounts would have to request to be added or taken off, as opposed to managing it themselves like they can in the community.

I'm here to advocate for keeping this for non-DW feeds. Otherwise, I could end up seeing a post once on my reading list and then again as a feed from here. Which feels Tumblr-esque, in the bad way.

If your issue is you're going to your reading page, and then separately to the reading page of metafilter_hub, and you don't intend to subscribe to any of the feeds with your own account to prevent that dupe issue but of course are subscribing to individual users, then you can actually filter it so only the feeds will show up, which will also help the metafilter posts not show up: https://metafilter-hub.dreamwidth.org/read?show=F -- We can make that easier to access, I think, in the journal style/posting/etc, so it's not such a hidden feature.

You have a paid account so they do show up on your network page (an interesting aspect I hadn't thought of before).

So now that I'm thinking about it, a bonus of subscribing to users who want to be added here, even if they are on DW and not just a feed:

* One location to see all public blog posts, whether they are on DW or a feed account, so there's less of a schism between the two ways of blogging
* The ability for those people to show up on network pages for anybody who subscribes to metafilter_hub! This is an ability we don't get from metafilter itself.
