We’ve rolled out some more improvements to Micro.blog. For blogs hosted on Micro.blog, you can now save a post draft to Micro.blog, then come back later to edit and publish it. The macOS app has been updated with support for drafts and a new “Posts” section to make editing or searching your existing posts much easier.
Here’s a short video of the new feature on the Mac:
Ben Norris Really exciting features! I look forward to using drafts on iOS. That will be a great convenience. Thanks!
Manton Reece @bennorris Thanks! We'll update iOS as soon as we can. Definitely will be useful there.
Chet Collins I love the in-app editor. So much better than having to jump out and over to the web app.
Manuel Riess awesome 👏 great progress as usual. I keep being impressed!
Odd-Egil “Oddzthrash” Auran I almost always use the iOS app, so I agree what’s being said. When I have to use the web app, it’s only if I’m going to tweak my profile… @bennorris @chet
Thaddeus Hunt LOVE the ability to edit posts from within the apps now! Thank you!
Michael Fürstenberg
Stephen B Perfect! I've been hoping for drafts as a feature for a while!
Michael Descy The in-app post editor on MacOS is a great addition. I didn't realize I wanted it until I saw it.
Dennis Parussini Awesome update. Will try it out tomorrow. 😊
Smokey Ardisson 👏 It’s especially great to see the stable of importers continuing to grow, making it easier to leave the silos and rescue your content.
But now you really need to update the “We’ve recently finished these changes:” section of What’s next?; you’ve made heaps of progress since Mastodon/ActivityPub support 😂
Manton Reece @smokey Oh yeah, I really need to update that page. Thanks for the reminder!
Simon Woods 🙌🏻 That is one hell of a collection of updates. There's a good mix of headline features, and those that are more technical but will massively improve things on a larger scale. Further development of the API is especially appreciated from the web and Android side of things. :)
Brad Enslen The Drafts feature is a great addition that effects all users. Increasing the stable of importers in general and Tumblr in specific will help MB grow. Very nice.
Manton Reece @rossk On top of Micropub (using q=source and post-status). However, the Mac app only works with Micro.blog right now, because I haven't had a chance to test with any other servers.
Smokey Ardisson And the version history part of the Mac app page stops at 1.6, too :-)
Manton Reece @smokey Oops, just updated it. Thanks!
