Great stuff! I'd recommend making the "Edit" button a bit more noticeable, took me a while to find it.
Also do you have planned custom domains?
Great job!

Personally I much prefer websites that don't use up that much bandwidth.
Let's take https://asset.mmm.page/77/a05aa5533e4f3a97080c63f9b70189/04-.... 4,748,611 bytes, 2602x4336 pixels, actually rendered at a ~150x250px size. Do you really need to ship that many pixels?
I hope more people pay attention to reducing bloat than looking campy, kitschy, messy, imperfect.

#23The ease of editing scratches an itch I didn't know I had.

#24I wish the "edit" button was more visible. I noticed it only on my second visit. After I found it, I enjoyed playing with the page and the first hand experience a lot more than reading about it. During my first visit I wasn't impressed but now the product looks cool to me.

#25I miss a 'Jump to random mmm.page'. No time or creativity to add something myself, but I'd like to get a few impressions on the jumbly messy things that are being made..

I was about to say the same. Make it bigger. Make it pulse. Mention high up in the text.... Or something. I scanned through the page and was annoyed there didn't seem to be a way of testing it without signing up and was about to leave when I spotted the edit button.

#27This is really great!

#28The flexible WYSIWYG editing is top-notch! I’m sure you’ll get a thousand feedback ideas, but... if a next goal was to get folks to make it an expression/view of themselves, it would be good to help them connect content that they are already making back into their page. Being able to drop in a API feed of their tweets, blog posts or videos — and then applying some of your kitschy formatting to it — might bring back even more of that MySpace feel...

#29> Websites shouldn't all look the same. We prefer campy, kitschy, messy, imperfect. I really like the design aesthethic this product encourages. There's so much charm and fun and eccentricity that's lost in a web where full-height responsive image backgrounds and blocky design frameworks are ubiquitous. If this can help people express just a little bit of the wild creativity of things like early 2000's MySpace layout…
I think now that many live in a youtube/twitter/twitch/facebook/insta sandbox where you can't customize your "space" very much, those days of people crafting their own corner of the internet is really gone.

#30Very nice but don't really understand "Every page is mindlessly responsive so they work across screen sizes". Doesn't seem to do anything to make it responsive unless I misunderstand something (just tried to resize the window and anything not in the narrow column in the middle ended up outside the screen).
I would like to add "breakpoints" and make adjustments just for the screen size I'm currently viewing it in.
