Not trying to overhype this but I’m so excited about what we’re going to launch in Micro.blog next month. It’s coming along really well and expanding beyond what I first thought it would look like. Meanwhile the everyday stuff continues too, working on fixes and servers this week.

@manton Didn’t you want to spoil it this week?

@ner3y Nope! 🙂 Usually I try to be transparent and just blog about everything we’re doing, but this one can wait until we’re ready.

@manton I really can’t stand it. I’m threatening you with a hunger strike!

@maique Thanks! Sort of related, I know you disabled the Micro.blog photos CDN after getting burned with downtime, but I recommend trying it again. It really is a lot faster now.

@maique Got it, that’s good to know. I think we need a better strategy for cross-posting issues… Right now, it tries multiple times to attach a photo and if it fails, it sends as text-only, but that’s obviously problematic. If we had a “retry this” button that would give more control in case of errors.

@manton @numericcitizen Right now I’ve already given up a Snickers bar. I don’t know how much longer I can manage…

@manton Well then, that’s on you. When I lose weight like crazy and am no longer overweight.

Live with it!

If @manton is teasing a feature and not divulging anything about it, I expect to have my socks knocked off by it. Looking forward to seeing what it is. Don’t let us down, Manton… 😁

@darrenhester Micro.blog always gets updated from time to time with larger releases once in a while. Having a direct line (via Micro.blog, not his phone number, mind you!) with @manton is cool!

@maique @manton I’ve disabled CDN too since now I post to Glass which gets pulled into Micro.blog via RSS and then is cross-posted to Mastodon and Pixelfed. Phew! But working great so far with infrequent delays but not too bad.

@pratik I do exactly the same workflow but CDN still enabled. Am I doing something wrong?

@jason One of these I should probably just register that, even as a joke. 🙂

@numericcitizen Nope. My not using CDN is for photos hosted on Micro.blog. But I’m hoping Micro.blog downloads the linked photo from my Glass-imported posts and uploads them to Micro.blog. So that way I have everything in one place and Glass is in fact the defacto backup. I love posting on Glass for its nice UI design and interactions.
