Veritula should have a 'Posts' tab next to the 'Discussions' tab, where people can browse the things people post on their profiles.
Done as of f27080b9, as tabs on the activity feed rather than a separate Posts tab: All, Discussions, and Profiles.
Doesn’t the ‘Search’ tab offer what you want? I could rename it to ‘Posts’. Maybe ‘Ideas’.
Search is site-wide. I have in mind a feed of what people are writing, that isn't in discussions.
I understand this might be too social-media-y for your taste, but I think it would be good to have. It doesn't need to be prominent. Discussions can remain the main focus.
I first want to see some more people posting to their profiles so there’ll be enough ideas to show in that tab.
There are more profile posts now, and f27080b9 makes it a tab instead of its own page, so fewer posts aren’t as big a deal anyway.
Also, did you know you can follow people? Click the bell icon when you visit someone’s profile.
I would like to follow you but I don't want my notifications full of bug fix stuff 😅
If there was more granularity to the follow function I would use it a lot I think.
If I mute a discussion, does that stop me from getting notifications from the people I follow, when they interact with that discussion?

Yes.
As a rule of thumb, specificity beats generality. For example, if you follow someone but mute a discussion, you won’t be notified of their posts in that discussion. But if you then subscribe to a specific thread in that muted discussion, you will get notifications for that thread.
There are exceptions. If you mute someone, you’ll never be notified of their actions, no matter how specific.
