Micro.blog has been updated on the Mac. Here are the changes:
- Added new Open option when clicking a post to open it in your web browser. Useful for copying the link or viewing the post on the author’s blog.
- Added icons for Reply, Favorite, and Conversation.
- Fixed error reporting when posting fails and during timeline loading.
- Fixed photo compression to be more consistent across Micro.blog platform.
I tried many different UIs for this before settling on “Open”, including a share menu to match iOS. Nothing felt right. By adding icons for all the options, I could make “Open” use the default web browser’s icon, which helps convey what will happen. (It uses stylized versions of Safari, Chrome, or Firefox icons.)
