yeah - so this reply appears - but the new post that read:

> 🏗️⛑️ Interested to see an error suddenly pop up on my blog for a post that has been there for over three years. Never touched since.

> I investigated - found the error - fixed.

> I guess Micro.Blog is becoming less forgiving about amateur hour?

did not.

@JohnPhilpin is reporting all kinds of errors on his site - including it not even being there and his last 5 posts not on timeline - as far as I can see.

@Miraz banks and cable providers regularly swap places on the top list of hated corps..

@Miraz I guess people don’t visit places like Trust Pilot to say how good they are - but still - 🔗 1.7 out of 5 doesn’t fill you with confidence - then again other ‘kiwi’ banks scores are 1.9 - 1.6 - 1.6 .. oh - and a 2.3 - so there’s that. (All roughly in line with US banks that I randomly looked at.)

@maique it seems to be reliable … eventually.

I run it on mac, phone and pad

I can synch all three and it looks done - but compare them - they clearly are not.

As I understand it - all down to apple putting gates on refreshes into icloud.

I would pay extra if they offered ‘synch on demand’ with no gates - but why they don’t - which IMHO is for one of three reasons

  • they don’t have the vision / don’t see the need
  • don’t think there is a big enough market
  • cant technically do it - which is at best a long shot based on what the rest of the world can do.

If they did - maybe this would also solve the general synch problem icloud still suffers from - you know - when the one doc you know is in the cloud is not on your pad - but is on the phone - or the whole dance of blow up your contacts synching and reconnect - just to force a flush etc etc

so for me - I live with it - since it is not make or break and so a feedbin hosting plan at 60 bucks not needed.

that said - if not icloud you are either going to run your own server - and for me - life is too short OR pay someone like Feedbin. If there is another way - am all ears.

@manton it might be time to define ‘integrate’ and maybe apply some nuance .. a starting point might be that ‘integrate’ should be is it bidirectional ., ‘what I push to them is accepted’ as is ‘what I pull from them is also accepted’ .. the nuances include ‘does update work’ .. did everything move .. or just a link .. did image make it, did image update make it etc ..

you forgot substack .. closed
