@dave Could be the static website build step that takes about a minute, maybe? You might get more intel if you keep an eye on the logs while you're experimenting. You should see the build process there, as well as the fetching of feeds for updating the timeline.
By the way, the Micro.blog timeline supports rssCloud. 🥳 (But Micro.blog hosted blogs don't have the cloud element in their feeds.)
