@manton is there a way to group posts on a page? For example, I do a weekly post on the comics I'm reading. How do I group these all on one page?

@smith Nothing automatic yet, although I've been thinking about categories. For Micro Monday's episodes page we just manually make a page with links, so that might be a short-term option.
@manton I do have a question, is there a way to get my timeline as an RSS feed? I know there are feeds for individual users, but is there one for the entire timeline somewhere?
@hope Yes! You can get a feed that is your timeline (posts from everyone you're following) at: micro.blog/feeds/hope.xml
@manton I have a feature idea for you. Perhaps you could create a plan where we pay for the ability to create 5-10 hosted sites? I'd like to bring my 4 other blogs over here but can't aford to pay that monthly. Yearly I can definitely do.
@hope Thanks, we're going to revisit the plans and especially what yearly options there should be, but probably not until next year.
@grayareas @hope I still think we can simplify the M.b plans. Not sure what that means yet, though! Thanks for the feedback. (We do have a yearly discount now, which I can enable for anyone who emails help.)
@manton How does the yearly thing work? Do I get more than one site? Also, can you delete the expired micro.blog I had? I canceled it and now it pops up an alert every time. Thanks!
..@grayareas My cost is probably going to be around $200 yearly for 7-8 sites. Lol yep, I'm one of those wanna-be bloggers heh. I do it all for kicks, though. I'm usually like Oh hmm this little niche might be fun to explore and/or write about. I'll spin up a blog. If micro.blog could get it down to around $50 or 100 yearly for 10 sites man, I'd stay here forever!
..@grayareas I very, very rarely use images in posts. Pictures = not fun for a blind blogger! Unfortunately I had to take an emergency break from blogging last month, major stuff happened here.
@manton Also some accessibility feedback. For some reason when I try to reply to someone the field is blank. If I make too many mistakes I have to cancel and do over, or paste in a text file and fix. Apparently I had extraneous characters before the @ symbol so they didn't go through. I didn't realize that until afterwards, oops! I mean they went through as text posts but never linked to the user's profile.
@hope Thank you! That's great feedback. I think this is because of the special JavaScript we use for highlighting Markdown. I've been considering letting it be disabled which I think will fix this, until that component is more accessible.
@bradenslen Hmm that's a bit strange. the reply field is always blank for me until I escape out of my screen reader's focus mode and check it over before hitting post.
@manton Is there a reason why Javascript is needed for highlighting markdown? I'd think that you could select it just like text. I do that with HTML, or any code for that matter. Lol if I'm in the mood to tweak stuff. I know just about enough to get me in trouble though hah.
..@bradenslen Unfortunately my screen reader still thinks that particular form field is blank. I have a feeling it has more to do with the way this particular thing deals with forms than anything @manton develops. I'm sure there are different scriptythings that would help it render correctly though. Lol no, I have no idea what said scriptythings actually are.
