So, what I've been doing up to know has been using the "Unique note creator" core plugin, which provides a command to generate a new templated note in a specified folder, and I've been using that to create "posts" with a date and time prefix so there's no risk of note name collision.
The problem with that is that my post folder quickly overflows, which down the line will eventually make it very unwieldy in the file navigator if I'm looking for something.
So, I took my posts from September and October and archived them in year-month subfolders, which makes sense to my brain as an organization method. However, it causes two problems with Obsidian Publish: it spams the RSS feed since Publish treats moved files as new files, and it also _breaks_ any links I've posted elsewhere, since Publish doesn't redirect to moved files.
There is a [Permalink property](https://help.obsidian.md/Obsidian+Publish/Publish+and+unpublish+notes#Permalinks) that can be set, but then that's another thing to keep up with. I'd have to set the permalink for each note, unless I can figure out how to do that in the template. I haven't messed around with template variables yet, so I don't know what's possible/practical.
It might be simpler to embrace one of the existing periodic note community plugins. [This one](https://github.com/andrewheekin/obsidian-folder-periodic-notes) looks promising in terms of doing what my brain sort of wants/expects, with the caveat that it (like other core and community periodic plugins) is designed to make one post per day, whereas I would prefer to be able to make multiple posts per day, because I'm trying to shitpost, not journal. (Hence why I've been using the unique note creator.) But maybe I can work my brain around doing little "posts" as sections of a daily note. Shitjournaling.
