How do I make a multipart post in a magazine?

I just tried posting the series of parts to my /mag, they showed up in reverse order in the microblog? WTF?

Please, if there is some advantage to this microblog thing, I’d love to know what is, and also how to make a post in my own magazine that does not feature a link.

‘Threads/Microblog/People/Magazines’ is where simplicity goes sideways in this webapp. It is not obvious what those things are; the couple of guides I’ve found don’t discuss this focal point of confusion.

    @sparseMatrix Personally, I treat microblogging like Twitter, where I can specify a Magazine as a general hashtag so that the post can be seen by people interested to this subject (or use random when it does not fit a specific magazine).

    I treat Threads as Reddit, a forum organized into different categories called Magazines (= subreddit).

      Interesting but not really helpful. I found something in a recent FAQ that says I should add an article instead of a post, but the option to add an article is not on the menu on my instance, as it is in their screenie

      Also I’m a mastodon user, and my account there is the focus of my microblogging activity. The user there follows this account, so my posts here, show up there. The short story is, the microblog here is essentially a right pain in my ass.

      At least now I know what it is.
