A short film called '🔗🎵🎬 Love Language' featuring music as a love language, except it isn't about music as a love language, but rather shared experiences - that included loving the same movie.

But ultimately it’s never only about posting, it’s about engagement, too.
certainly can be - but my blog on Micro Blog wouldn’t be here if it was really about engagement.
Mastodon and Threads seem to be where I get that - (never on Xitter - as I saw Doc Searls referencing them earlier today) ... but I rarely post anything in either of those spaces that didn’t start here.

@fractals well .. hello
@dave sadly I am getting a link broken message.
I just read Sarah Perez’s piece and nothing really adds to micro blog and as she points out - it might be short lived - federation and all that …
I am with @pratik .. ‘blog’ is right there in the name and despite what we all think - not sure most of humanity agrees we need one - so ‘’don’t need’ ‘too hard’ is the block.
But as @dave says @manton has the infrastructure already .. how hard to create another app that only cross posts?
@pratik we don’t know what kind of business Manton is building .. or what kind of business he wants to build .. you know .. the bigger things .. Purpose - Vision - Why - To what end? .. I typically find that once these kind of questions are truly bottomed out .. the answers inform ‘now what’.
@pratik selling ( and marketing ) and all under that Umbrella is hard - and the best ones make it look so easy that anyone thinks they can do it … they can’t.
And even good ones have a hard time doing it for themselves.
And … I do say this a lot … AND the message never seems to get through - meta!
I pointed ChatGPT at micro.blog and asked it what it thought your positioning was ...
Micro.blog positions itself as a hybrid platform that combines blog hosting with a social media-style timeline. It provides an easy-to-use environment for both short-form and long-form posts while emphasizing user ownership of content and fostering a friendly, distraction-free community without likes, follower counts, or ads  .
