I was speaking to @seblog about categorisation of contents in our websites and some ideas came into mind:

• Now I have sections for each post type and a special section for posts that should so up in home.
• Sections are automatically added to the posts when they are created based on their post type.
• Realistically, who will follow a feed based on the post type? And why?
• @seblog suggests a more audience-based categorisation, such as “personal”, “tech”, etc. I’ve had that way back in the past and I really don’t remember if it was good or not. However, I understand the appeal.
• @seblog said that types distiction are not that useful, it’s just easy to make.
• We both already have tags. But tags feel too overly-specific.
• Both tags and sections are… at the end of the day… taxonomies.
• On my website I could technically achieve this with either tags or sections. Sections seem best as they are more general. Also, audience-based names would not collide with post types so they could still be at the root of the website, such as /personal or /articles.
• Manually categorising a post every time we post can become arduous.
• Is it worth it?

Let’s conclude with taxonomies are hard. What do you think?
