Micro.blog News

  • Fixed not fully deleting uploaded files, only removing them from the CDN and not your own domain name.

  • You can now drag and drop photos into the new post editor in Micro.blog on the web to upload them. Also better context menus for hiding and showing the extra fields.

  • Released an update to the Android app for Micro.blog, version 2.6.5, fixing a crash when opening the app again.

  • Added the “s” key as an additional shortcut for the quick search, for folks who have a keyboard layout where “/” isn’t convenient.

  • Fixed an issue that started yesterday with some inconsistency of posts that were successfully published not appearing on your blog.

  • Fixed an issue with some GitHub archives getting stuck and not copying new posts and photos to GitHub.

  • Fixed the expired certificate for the micro.one domain name. Very sorry for the downtime.

  • Fixed following Bluesky users so Micro.blog can find the profile of all users. Previously some users configured with DNS did not show up in Micro.blog search. Just search for their Bluesky username / domain name.

  • Fixed the fediverse muting setting. It was intended to mute only replies, but it was muting all posts from the fediverse in your timeline.

  • Fixed an intermittent problem today with new posts not loading correctly, or errors when publishing.

  • Fixed a bug with bookshelf goals when a book’s ISBN was missing. If you’d like to blog about your finished books for 2025, check out our companion app Epilogue.

  • Released a bug fix update for Epilogue on iOS, fixing email sign in and other issues.

  • Fixed a new issue with the blog post summary that could prevent some blogs from publishing correctly.

  • Fixed bookmarking from the Chrome and Firefox web browser extensions.

  • For developers, we’re continuing to refine how authentication tokens work, trying to maintain backward compatibility as much as possible. The scope and expiration for tokens will start to be enforced. Apps should always call /account/verify to refresh a token that might expire. See the updated docs.

  • Fixed a Hugo warning that could appear in the logs about a “taxonomy” output format if GitHub archiving was enabled.

  • Updated Micro.blog for both iOS and Android today with a few bug fixes. Fixes an occasional blank timeline when loading and improves the share sheet on Android.

  • Fixed clearing out old saved articles that were accidentally created from new blog posts from the native apps today. If you were using the (very old) feature based on Indiepaper and had the saved feed in your RSS reader, you may have seen your new blog posts show up in there.

  • Fixed a new bug where posts created from the iOS, Android, or Mac apps would vanish, not getting saved properly. Very sorry about this problem. If you posted from the native apps in the last 30 minutes, please submit the post again.

  • Updated the developer help page for tokens to add that tokens can expire. For security we are slowly migrating away from permanent tokens. Third-party apps and scripts should call /account/verify when they have a token that will expire.

  • Release Micro.blog for Mac update, version 3.8.3, with improvements to uploading images and a new right-click context menu on the Movies pane.

  • Added photos to Day One automatic cross-posting. To enable, go to your Day One settings on the web and turn on the “Include Images” checkbox. Micro.blog will send any photos in your blog post to Day One along with the post text as Markdown.

  • Moved the “Copy HTML” button on Uploads into each thumbnail photo and improved the grid spacing.

  • Added new Hugo logging details, so that if there are Hugo warnings they are now included in Micro.blog’s logs. Also improved publishing performance a little bit more in some cases.

  • Fixed how posts are deleted to consistently update the Micro.blog timeline when a post is deleted from Posts or from the API. Also improved how deleted posts are federated to Mastodon servers.
