For all the joy of the #indieweb, and the pleasure of civil discourse, I am becoming incredibly confused by aspects of micro.blog. There’s the question of titleless posts, of which is this is one as an experiment, versus status updates. There are posts that appear to be contributions to an interesting conversation but aren’t because they have been cross-posted automatically from elsewhere. And there is the lack of a scroll back, which means that as I follow more people and choose not to check in the middle of my night, stuff vanishes irretrievably from my timeline.
There are also issues with Known that are nothing to do with micro.blog.
None of this is insurmountable. For me, though, it does add friction.
Narrowing things down. I can post a photo to Known from my desktop with OS X.
I don’t expect it to show up on micro.blog because that gets a feed of selected categories only, and Photos isn’t one of them.
How about an image in a post?
Doing a clean install of Known at Dreamhost to trouble shoot my issues with micro.blog (and the instructions). I **will** get this sorted out.
Attempted to post to Known from the latest micro.blog app. No error! But no post either. @manton
