I don't like that many clients pick up my kind30023 posts as if they were the news of the hour andput them right in my feed every time I write something or even do minor edits.

I see these two kinds of posts as very different. The long-form stuff is supposed to just sit there for people interested in reading them at whatever time they see fit, while the microblogging notes are more like shouting in the middle of a public square.

Since I know that clients will get any article I write and show it to everybody I follow immediately I end up not wanting to write them anymore.

Maybe allowing people to choose if they want to "shout" about a long-form article instead (by publishing a kind1 note that quotes it) is better than the current state of things.

That makes sense. Gossip added these to the feed but has it off by default. They are better served by blog reading clients.

Maybe we can mark them more clearly as blogs or even blog edits so that people don't infer that you are intending to shout-up-a-conversation right now.
