Description

Social network for indie blogs

Micro.blog is the fastest way to blog and a safe community for microbloggers. Micro.blog is the blog you will actually use.

Micro.blog shows recent posts from sites and people you are following. Microblog posts are short — quick thoughts, links to web sites, and replies to friends. It's a fast timeline that's powered by the open web.

Blogs hosted on Micro.blog include:

* Short microblog posts or full-length posts.
* Markdown for styling.
* Custom themes.
* Categories, photos, podcasts, video, and more.

Already have a blog? Use Micro.blog to follow friends and post to external blogs compatible with WordPress and the Micropub API.

Instead of trying to be a full social network, Micro.blog is a thin layer that glues the open web together, making it more useful. Micro.blog adds discovery and conversations on top of previously unconnected blog posts.

Wonderful update!

The latest 3.0 update has added a ton of improvements! This is exactly what the app needed.

It needs some love

The timeline fails to load entirely. Maybe due to the new mastodon integration. With no updates in over a year, this app needs some love to get back on track. Currently it is not usable.

Not clear or upfront information

This app is a 10 day trial based on their hosting ($5/mo). After 10 days of creating a blog you will be cut off. I sent an email to customer service and they responded by giving me a additional week. Perhaps if you can find other free hosting it would be a great app.

Deceiving

This app is for a ten day trial period. After uploading photos, writing the blog, and inviting friends all of a sudden it doesn’t work - “error”. In app purchase is not disclosed on the App Store, “Trial period expired” .

Solid client

I like the vision behind this product, and it works well enough for my needs as an iOS client. The micro.blog service is a bit idiosyncratic, but I like that you own your own content.
