cross-post of a blog

TraceyOnim opened this issue · comments

Is it okay to do a cross-post of a blog i.e can I post the same blog here in Elixirschool and also in medium?

Hi @TraceyOnim! Thanks for opening this issue! I'm not opposed to doing a cross-post. We've done at least one in the past, here https://medium.com/flatiron-labs/how-functions-pattern-match-in-elixir-12a44a51c6ad, although in that case we cross-posted a part of a lesson as a blog post on another platform.

Did you have a particular post in mind?

I'll also let others weight in here and see what they think. cc @doomspork

Thank you @SophieDeBenedetto for the confirmation. I wanted to find out first from the members if its okay for the future blogs that I'm planning to write.
I'm looking forward to hear from others also.

Howdy @TraceyOnim! I think we should open up the door to more cross posts so long as they align with our mission to provide Elixir content for everyone. Thanks for reaching out to check with us on this, really appreciate 🙏

We could potentially expand some of our functionality to better support cross post blogs too. I'll think about that a bit more 🤔 cc @burden @kinson

Closing for now because I believe we answered the question. Cross posted blogs are welcome and if the occurrence of them picks up, we'll expand our functionality around cross posting.
