I guess that A Day in the Life challenge already passed, but will post nonetheless 😄 Gym time in Oulu, Finland, 14:20pm. Sweaty business! 😅
I find that micro.blog has the same kind of good vibe Twitter used to have in the early days. Browsing and reading other people’s updates here leave me feeling good. The opposite is true with my Twitter feed, which has turned into (mostly) doom and gloom, people arguing about stupid smallest things and all that. I’ll be spending much more time here than on Twitter in the future, that’s for sure! :)
One thing I’ve wondered lately when discovering new users here, how many active users are there on micro.blog? Just a curiosity, if it’s not a big secret @manton? 😄
Hi @jeffmueller! Is ADN finder still a thing? I was trying to add myself to that list, but I don’t think it worked out. Or is there a manual process involved after submitting? 😊 Cheers!
Where did that weekend go? 😄 Well, coffee to the engine and toward this weeks adventures! Started exploring ConvertKit on Saturday. Thinking of starting a newsletter, in addition to these somewhat random micro blog writings. Let’s see!
Giving a try to “Twitter for Professionals” mode in the app. Could not find software developer, maker or creator “profession” there, so ended up using “Blogger” 😄 Let’s see how this feature turns out! 😆
Blast from the past from travel photo archives. Miss those Bali adventures! This was a cave waterfall called Tukad Cepung (if I remember correctly). Beautiful place! 😍

And there goes the well started Daily (Micro) Blogger streak - Forgot to post yesterday, duh! Oh well.. 😄 Weekend ahead! No plans, just chill! Maybe some gym activities, movies and catching up reading from some favourite bloggers around the blogosphere. Speaking of “reading blogs”, I still find most convinient to subscribe to blogs via news reader, instead of email newsletters. My highest recommends goes to reader called NetNewsWire 🙌
A proper thunderstorm here in Oulu this evening. ⛈ 71 millimetres of rain in the past 6 hours or so. Some pics here, the article is in Finnish
My first Micro Monday shout-out goes to @amit who’s blog amitgawande.com I just stumbled upon recently. Amit sure has been blogging for a while! Starting from 2005, that’s no small feat! 😄 Amit is also responsible for the beautiful theme I started using on my blog (the same one he uses for his - Paper theme). Minimally beautiful!
Regarding discovering new (micro) blogs, I wonder if there’s a way to see if anyone I follow on Twitter has a blog here? Is there a plug-in or something for that @manton? 😊
Really wish there were a lite version of the Instagram iOS app. NO REELS, suggestions, boosted posts, ads, shopping features.. all that. Just photos and perhaps, stories. Just the good stuff from the people you follow, nothing else. Well, not going to happen for sure.. but one can always hope! 😄
