  • Fixed some images not loading in the timeline.

  • Check for updates! There’s an update to Micro.blog for Mac, fixing cross-posting with multiple blogs and dragging more than one photo into Uploads.

  • Micro.blog’s timeline and some other background tasks are bogged down today and running slowly. Apologies for the delays. We are working on improving performance.

  • Fixed replying to posts on Bluesky from Micro.blog not making it back to Bluesky. Replies to replies were already working.

  • Fixed an issue with cross-posting where it would sometimes disable all services for a post. Apologies for the new problem this week!

  • Updated new posts, editing, and notes to support command-S for saving. The convention in Micro.blog on the web will be command-return to save something and close the thing, and command-S to stay where you are if you don’t want to leave the page.

  • Improved the reader mode for archived bookmarks, tweaking the spacing and link color so it’s more readable. To learn more about archiving and highlights, watch this video introducing the feature from a while back.

  • Updated the Markdown processing in Micro.blog so that it’s more consistent with the output when publishing to your blog. This also fixes an issue with underscores interfering with links.

    Let us know if you notice any issues with your blog, previews, newsletter, or anywhere else where Markdown is used.
