Effectively no one knows how good Micro.blog is for blogging. I alternate between being bummed out by this and optimistic that there is so much room for growth. Might take a few more years for overnight success to hit.
@manton I absolutely love the community aspect of MB and while I want overnight success to hit for you, losing that community feel would be losing one of the best parts of this platform. As for me, and I know I’ve brought this up before, my major hesitation is not knowing how to engage people who aren’t on MB or Mastodon: they can get my posts via RSS or even Email, but they can’t comment or contribute to the conversation like they can on WP either via the comment form or even as just an Email reply. Of course the tradeoff is that WP has gotten so complicated that blogging has become more of a chore than a joy. Maybe I just need to step back, stop over-thinking everything, and refocus on making this fun for me again, that would very likely lead me back here. :)
