what are the differences between this and the main micro.blog product?

@azizforamerica.com I haven’t mentioned all the differences yet. I’ll have another blog post about it and probably a FAQ too.

Are there any plans to make video embedding easier? Feels like should just be able to post a link and everything else gets automatically handled.

@samradford Not immediately but I’d like to improve it. Where are you embedding video from?

Just YouTube. I tried the embed code, then discovered the short code thing you can do. But I think I expected to be able to paste the link and micro.blog handle the rest. Also, had to update css as there’s no padding around the video.

@samradford Thanks, we can improve the default styling for sure. Maybe when you paste a URL it should just convert to an embed for you, which could be edited. I sometimes worry about doing too much automatically for people who want to tinker with exactly how it looks.

I think that would be my preference. I hear you on balance between ease of use and ability to tinker. But, even as someone who doesn’t mind tinkering, I was hoping for a more automated out of the box option. Thanks for all your work on this—I am, overall, a very happy customer!

@bazbt3 No problem, I’ll remove you. Thanks for the support, let us know if you have any questions about WordPress migration.

Is it worth it for me to try micro.one?

@bazbt3 glad you like it here!

@starrwulfe Probably not if you’re already using Micro.blog. It’s not going to have anything new yet.
