@cheesemaker But the next build will be great. 🙂

@combatdavey Yep. It might even end up being one of those nearly-unbreakable records that we don't see again for a long time. So hard to achieve.

@devilgate @danielpunkass Daniel and I have talked about this a few times, and I know the latest version of MarsEdit has some improvements here. I may eventually just skip these special {title} posts in Micro.blog too to completely avoid the issue.

@canion Very cool to get a shoutout! (I haven't listened yet…)

@patrickrhone Really good advice.

@gregmorris That's always a concern. But more more than that, I find myself not agreeing with the standards direction on some things, and going against the flow of what everyone else wants is futile unless it's really important.

@renevanbelzen Tumblr hasn't joined the fediverse yet, but there was an article last week that they are making progress. Replies from WordPress to Micro.blog do work, but it's opt-in on the WordPress side, so it's still not very common to have WordPress blogs on the fediverse. Should continue to grow.

@gregmoore I think you've expressed it pretty well! Snow is beautiful, especially for those of us who almost never get any of it.

@moonmehta By the way, any particular bookmark managers that you're thinking of that we should draw inspiration from?

@sks Looks like when your domain name changed, the feed on the Sources page wasn't updated (this is supposed to happen automatically but there is a bug) so that stopped the timeline and cross-posting from working. I'm fixing this for your account now.

@moonmehta Ah, for sharing other links, yes, that would be a nice improvement. I'm first thinking about your own posts.

@moonmehta Thanks, I'll experiment with that. I think the favicon might be redundant since we have the profile photo too.

@markstoneman Thanks. I've resisted tags for posts because I think categories tend to be simpler and more useful for the reader, but maybe it's time to reevaluate that.

@bloftin2 There is something very nice about just RSS and the occasional reply or email. I'm not giving up on social platforms, but it should be easier to step back from the noise.

@mackuba.eu Yes, although it depends on the theme how the index page will use them. I think there's potential for showing them in more places too, such as the timeline where longer posts have usually been deemphasized.

@jade I'm still really happy with Arc too. Hope it keeps getting maintained even as they work on the new browser.

@hawaiiboy One of my favorites. Arguably the best movie about computers ever made.

@Robinette That is weird. I didn't mean the first Kagi result was my blog, there were a few results first, but when I scrolled down to find myself, the first post was that 2023 post. Maybe it varies for different users.

@pratik Sure, there are so many stories of people who blogged more when using Micro.blog, or people who left and later realized they blogged much less often.

@tylerknowsnothing Thanks! 🙂 Big animation fan here.

@kimberlykg Noted, thanks! Won't be long hopefully. A couple recent fixes were just for iPad but pretty sure there are some that apply to Android too.

@rscottjones Beautiful! Wow.

@apoorplayer Nope, they are different! Micro.blog is the main official app for most features. Strata is our new app that is just for private notes and bookmarks. We wanted to do more with notes without cluttering the main app, so Strata allows us to do that. This link for Google Play should work.

@aeryn It is indeed one of the weirdest things I've ever experienced. Honestly it still bothers me a lot, but I don't think anything good would come of me personally blogging about it more. (No worries about the downgrade! That's why we have multiple plans.)

@vincent That would be funny. They should be getting 404s for those, and I made an optimization today so the response comes quicker, less likely to interfere with anything else in Micro.blog, e.g. handled in Caddy instead of routed to the platform.
