This is what I found out.
Why do you use the WordPress Reader?

@HughWRoberts Yes I have used WordPress reader from JetPack mobile app, although I have a self-hosted WordPress and I'm starting to dislike many of JetPack's conditions - I can't for example have a paypal/ko-fi button or they'll force me to buy their subscription. Talking about HIV I'm afraid someone could find it "mature", hypocrite american bigotry always has something to surprise me for. I'd like better to rely on fediverse but time's not yet mature. #WordPress #JetPack #fediverse

@talksina I don't use the Jetpack app very much because I do most of my blogging from an iMac. The WP Reader is great for finding blog posts with the content you're interested in reading. Plus, WordPress now send all my posts to my Mastodon account. I like that.

@HughWRoberts Yeah, if you connect the blog to mastodon - I did it via an external plugin called "share to Mastodon" because JetPack's social free plan is quite limited and I have double posts (Italian and English).

@HughWRoberts I don't know if you can give me advices about this: my blog does not appear in reader, through tags. I have several posts tagged as "WordPress" for example but the blog doesn't seem to be viewed; could it matter with template? For my particular needs I haven't displayed tag lists into single posts.

@talksina From what I know, the WordPress search bar produces results for users on what kind of blogs they usually view. When you say template, do you mean the theme?

@HughWRoberts Yeah, my theme, where I changed single post/page templates according to my needs.

@talksina Is the theme you're using still supported? Retired themes can cause users lots of problems.

@HughWRoberts No, it is the 2024 one - I don't know if I switch to 2025 then, it's a block-based theme. Classic themes give me a lot of trouble due to my visual impairment and not so high skill in coding.
