I got bit by the “spruce the old Hugo blog up” bug this week and ended up tearing apart the old theme, restyling some stuff, and fixing up the old post notice.
Once I was done with that, I took a long look at the micro.blog and decided I was done with it. I think I subscribed hoping I was in the mood for the slow-moving community over there, but most people I know from it seem to have moved on since I was last there. So I pointed its custom domain to this one, exported all my stuff from it, and set up shop here again.
micro.blog hews so close to things I think I would really like to exist somewhere in a less elaborate manner. I appreciate the way you can start with what feels like a short-form social-media-style post and end up tipping over into a whole blog entry without having to switch context. What’d be fine, honestly, would be “Mastodon except your Markdown works and you can kinda blog in there, not just toot.” Then sometimes it’d be a pithy little comment, other times it’d be a screed, and you could get kicked out of your instance because a lot of words is violent or whatever.
