I would generally agree with you. Bring blogging back, baby! But the question of discovery is still open. I'm optimistic about the threadiverse over the long haul in this regard, but there's a lot of work we'll need to do to get there. Also blogging feels daunting to the less technically-inclined still. I'm not sure the traditional blog platforms out there (Wordpress.com, etc.) are quite up to the task…they typically end up catering to more of the power-user business site use cases.

Weird that they'd bother to take the time to use an accent for "Café" but then misspell Coffee! 😅

Only "mildly" infuriating??

This may be a weird answer, but I played Celtic music with the family band as a teenager and our favorite place to play was Santa Rosa Brewing Company in Santa Rosa, CA. Great vibe, good food—I of course was too young to partake of the brew 😉—but it was a lot of fun and we had a crowd of regulars who'd come to see us perform every time. When they eventually closed down, it felt like the end of an era…

Yeah, if something like a combination of a webring/blogroll with actually good UX (I don't like the "which random website will I get plopped down on next?" aspect) could emerge, that would be cool.

Yeah, it's kinda crazy but I'm already running the dev beta on my iPad Pro and my Mac mini (main machine), and other than occasional graphics glitches or whatnot, I've been amazed at the stability and some actual bug fixes from previous versions. If it's looking this good already at the beginning of the summer, I'm feeling pumped about the fall!
