Better change log for Micro.blog features and fixes manton.org
@manton Quick follow-up: Noticed that subscribing to the whole site of news.micro.blog doesn't include entries from the new Changes section? Not sure if it's intentional but notifying in case it's a bug.
@uncertainquark From the post:
I’ve customized the news blog home page and feed to exclude these posts ...
@uncertainquark As somebody who missed out on a coffee delivery this morning, I can more than relate 😂
@SimonWoods Ugh, I feel your pain. Last time I had to use a backup bag of beans from the grocery store, I had resting asshole face the entire weekend and Monday morning before my replacement.
@uncertainquark Thanks @simonwoods for clarifying. I did it this way because @news itself is powered by the feed. So by default, most folks will get the big highlights, but the little details are there too for anyone who wants to dig. I think this will fix a longstanding issue with sparse documentation.
@manton I am (predictably) happy to see this. It's a good way to implement the feature. 👍
I think I've said this before but just in case: feel free to redirect the old TIL Updates site to News... or maybe even better specifically to this new feed. That site no longer has any use whatsoever.
@SimonWoods Maybe let's follow up in email later? You have a lot of good content on TIL that isn't really anywhere else.
@manton is there a way to Follow the changes within M.b? I don’t use rss and now @news doesn’t have the info and I can’t Follow a category on M.b (at least I don’t think I can). Not a big deal, just seeing if I’m missing a way to follow changes “in app.”
I wouldn’t be mad if premium Mb accounts got a way to subscribe to RSS feeds in the future.
@camacho No way to see all the changes directly in M.b right now. I thought about making a new subdomain and/or Micro.blog username for these, but honestly I was trying to simplify things on our side so there is less to maintain. Which I think is easier for everyone too.
