I’d really like to get my cross-posting from Micro.blog to Mastodon straightened out. I’ve posted a few times now, but I’ve been getting the following error. I don’t have issues authenticating any other app so I suspect it’s not the instance, but open to suggestions from anyone. Thanks!

If you missed the #Microdotblog #Microcamp live, the sessions are now available on YouTube to catch up. This is the 6th most popular #Fediverse software - one of the first to publish to your blog, and then to #Mastodon & to #BlueSky directly, and is one to watch.

@feditips @theatticdwellers @Iancylkowski @rstv I use #microdotblog, and appreciate how it connects to Mastodon and the fediverse. https://welcome.micro.blog/
Whatever overcomes the walled gardens of Facebook and the others. The Network is the social network.
@dansup Very glad to see #Microdotblog tracked there! This may be the main tool like this that does (as they all should)

🙋♀️ I’m trying this request again.
I’d love to see a write-up or example of someone using omg.lol services and micro.blog in a way to helps me see the distinct use cases. I’m micro.blog curious but at this point with both the increasing possibilities of weblog.lol and social.lol, I’d like to understand the need micro.blog fills for other people using the omg.lol services too.
Thank you 🙏

I'd also look at #WriteFreely and #Microdotblog examples at how long form content can Federatate well - both culturally and technically....
If you have an opinion as to micro.blog compared to write.as, I’m interested in hearing it. I’m looking into blogging platforms that work easily with the fediverse.

Is how I do posting too convoluted? Can one join the worlds of RSS and blogs with ActivityPub & microblogging?
Well, here’s my write up of how I’ve used the #MicroDotBlog features to import all of my Mastodon posts via RSS into my blog https://blog.bmannconsulting.com/2022/12/11/one-feed-to.html
Which you can follow at @boris@blog.bmannconsulting.com ;)
Thanks @manton
So it turns out #MicroDotBlog _retroactively_ imports your feed. See screenshot from my blog of my #ToolsForThoughtRocks account posts imported.
And hashtags link to a hashtag search on the server on which the account is - pretty cool.

@fediverseobserver - You should definitely add #MIcroDotBlog - https://micro.blog/
They offer users direct federation out to the ActivtyPub networks.

So, how do I follow someone on micro.blog? Tried searching for https://micro.blog/brentsimmons on my instance and it found nothing. That domain does not appear to be blocked by my instance. #MicroDotBlog
One more silo, on its way to dying. Bye, #Medium. So much better to go with open, indieweb, or federated solutions for long-form blogging. #microdotblog #writeas https://www.nytimes.com/2022/07/12/business/media/evan-williams-leaving-medium.html

#MicroDotBlog ads new "replies seen on your own blog" features, a key #indieweb feature:
Good that #Microdotblog made this call given how broken FB was for cross-posting: “Goodbye to Facebook cross-posting…Facebook & even Instagram are at odds with the principles of the open web.” https://www.manton.org/2019/10/10/saying-goodbye-to.html
Hey speaking of the #openweb, #indieweb & #fediverse evolving together: See this from #MicrodotBlog founder @manton
"I’ve updated Micro.blog today to help #Mastodon users follow people on Micro.blog. It used to be that if you clicked from Mastodon to a Micro.blog user you just ended up their blog home page. Now it redirects to a special version of the Micro.blog profile screen which includes a follow form. This is very similar to Mastodon’s default remote follow form."
