Bringing older notes to my attention

These notes serve as my “digital garden”, so extending the metaphor I tend to benefit from healthy “topsoil”; whichever notes are at the top of my lists will receive more attention.

I’ve used the topic reminder feature in Discourse to auto-bump older topics on a schedule. That works fine. However, I’m changingth focus of this site from being a primary space for me to be an informative resource for the public. Auto-bumping adds noise to a public interface, so a new approach is called for.

Outline of new approach:

  1. Data explorer query for one or more lists of oldest content (topics which have not had any actions or replies)
  2. Automation to run query and post results to a topic
  3. A topic to receive the query results and auto-deletes replies
