I’ve been trying to remember how I first heard about Micro.blog and – nothing. I remember looking at the site, I remember signing up, but not how I found it.
@bradenslen I swore I learned about it from Daring Fireball but looking at the posts there from around the time I signed up, there is nothing. But your post sparked my memory and I found MacPowerUsers #417 which came out on 12 February 2018 and I signed up for Micro.blog on 13 February 2018.
