#92Less than a month ago I decided to build an app for myself to solve a very specific problem: “I want to be able to take notes on my phone, share some of them online, and publish a few on my personal blog — oh, an I also want an API!” I built this is because no tool out there satisfied my needs: - Notion had no native app so it's very slow to use on mobile. Plus is too general. - Medium is a disaster for readers, they…
Great work. UI tip: When reading on mobile browser and rotating the phone the text doesn’t expand to occupy more space like it can. I find myself doing this a lot to read code on my phone so when a site doesn’t adapt to allow me to read it without odd line breaks I usually leave the site.
Oh good catch, thanks!

Honestly, sounds like micro.blog and how I use it. Most importantly, micro.blog uses Micropub, an existing W3C standard API for blogging which is why things like Drafts, iAWriter, MarsEdit etc can all support it. Don’t get me wrong, this is a very cool project and it looks like you’ve done a great job. I would recommend looking into Micropub support though rather than role your own API. The IndieWeb group has worked…
Interesting idea. How long is it around I wonder, it feels like it hasn't taken off yet. The bloggers there seem to perhaps come from a similar viewpoint, guardianista, I'd call it. If someone starts blogging what they might feel to be an unacceptable viewpoint, more torygraph what then, I wonder? Is it a curated timeline? Can they censor like Twitter does? What's the essential difference from a free speech point of view between this site and the existing social networks?

I think the features mentioned on the landing page should make it clear. I’m not that familiarized with tumblr or micro.blog tbh

Any idea what the cause is for that?

#96Loving the app's simplicity and the straight-to-the-point approach you had taken with the website. Definitely giving it a try, great work!

#97Can you talk a little about how you built it?

#99This is lovely. Really simple - this is a good thing.
I think I'm showing my ignorance as I didn't get why code blocks are surrounded by four back ticks (I thought Markdown used just one), but that's just me asking and certainly not complaining.
