    @jonah I do follow a few Substack writers through my feed reader, but I haven't really used the service for discovery. I'll have to give it a try.

    I agree with Maggie that this is an issue for a lot of people, but personally, I've worked around it by following a variety of interesting people, newsletters, and linkblogs. I also keep an eye on sites like are.na and lobste.rs, where stuff I care about tends to bubble up. It does take more effort compared to just having everything handed to you by an engagement algorithm, though.

    @devilgate Yeah, I'm with you. It's also weird that he ends the post with, and I'm paraphrasing here, see you at my new blog hosted on Substack. 😊 (As they put it themselves, Substack is just "[a] blog – but with email.")

    @odd AirDrop creates ad-hoc peer-to-peer Wi-Fi connections between devices, so you're not dependent on a router. Bluetooth is used to set up the temporary Wi-Fi connection, but it's not possible to actually AirDrop over Bluetooth, to my knowledge.

    @pimoore Congrats! 🎉

  • @miguelmanalo I used Kindle devices for more than a decade, but switched to Kobo a while back and am happy with it. Their Libra and Sage models have physical page-turn buttons.

    @sopsack Hittade du gocart-läget? 😊

    @odd No, actually, I took that photo more or less in your backyard 😊 – Fulufjället, close to the Norwegian border where it turns into Fulufjellet. About the cliff… Yeah, I think so too, but I didn't dare leave the trail, just to be safe.

    @dave Well blogged! 🎉 I look forward to the next 30 years.

    @gustav Det är förvånansvärt ofta jag hittar nytt "ute på stan". Alltså att jag sitter på ett café eller går förbi en radio, hör något jag gillar och shazamar. Precis som @kottkrig följer jag också folk som då och då tipsar om något som faller mig i smaken. Jag följer också klubbar och festivaler jag tycker om. DNA Lounge har sina blandband som jwz kurerar, till exempel. Jag brukar också kolla upp skivmärken/-bolag (som Data Airlines och PC Music) för artister jag tycker om – stor chans att det finns liknande musik i resten av deras stall.

    Sen finns det ju en​ massa roliga webbplatser där ute… Bop Spotter har satt upp en mikrofon i Mission (San Francisco) som shazamar dygnet runt, Music-Map rekommenderar artister baserat på de du redan gillar och Album Whale låter folk dela album-listor med varandra.

    @maria Men, va sjukt, jag satt precis och svor över den där kampanjen. Tack. Nu vet jag åtminstone att det inte bara är hos mig det blir sådär.

    @heyloura This is lovely! 👻

    @odd This is cool! Thanks for sharing. Maybe it's just me, but I'm noticing a subtle trend in my parts of the www, bringing handwriting and analog elements into design. For example, handwritten.blog and the redesign of dynamicland.org.

    @Miraz Oh, no. 🤢 I haven’t seen anything like that here yet, but I’m sure it will happen any day now.

    @alienlebarge Oh, yes, GLHF! ✨

    @Denny Well done! Caring for and repairing our things can be so rewarding. This summer, I managed to fix a broken robotic lawn mower using a salvaged wheel motor from another bot carcass. It felt amazing to see it come back to life.

    @amit It's a MINI Cooper SE, and yes, the round OLED display works perfectly as a speedometer—there are several styles available to choose from.

    @Miraz Haha, exactly. Engage! 🚀

  • Replying to: @DaveyCraney

    @DaveyCraney This turned out to be a performance degradation introduced in Safari 18 on iOS. Hopefully, Apple or the WebKit team will fix that in the future. For now, I've implemented a workaround in version 1.0.2. Navigate to the plug-ins page and tap the upgrade button, and you should be all set after Micro.blog rebuilds your blog.

  • Replying to: @DaveyCraney

    @DaveyCraney No, but wow, that's interesting and definitely a bug introduced in Safari 18 on iOS. It works fine on macOS, though. I've created an issue on GitHub and will look into this. Thanks for the report. 🥰

  • Replying to: @jarrod

    @jarrod My experimental feed is just Micro.blog's original feed sprinkled with the conversation links. To avoid gaps, it's up to Reeder to check the feed more frequently. Or, as @manton already pointed out, they could page back in history to fill gaps. At least in theory, but I see no next_url property in the feed. Does the timeline feed support pagination, Manton?

    @AndyNicolaides In Photos on macOS, you can create a Smart Album filtered by a specific lens.
