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 find it to be about the best platform, for my needs at least. I think you and the team have done amazing so far. I think one of the big things that may hold people back is the theme selection. Not many of us are savvy enough to build our own and I feel some more selection is needed.
