For a long time, users have been able to submit microblog-style posts to link-aggregator subs (a.k.a. subcommunity, community, magazine, etc.). Some platforms such as mbin require you to select one for your post. Previously, I’ve thought this sub selection as a special hashtag for the post. However, I’ve recently been reminded that posts actually show up in communities as full-on threads. So what do you (or the threadi gods) consider to be proper etiquette in selecting a proper sub to make your microblog post to? There’s always !random, but that feels kinda worthless…

    Can’t you just leave the magazine field empty? I don’t really make microblog posts so I honestly don’t know but likewise you’re not required to add hashtags to threads either so I would assume you don’t have to specify a magazine for a post either.
