How many people signed up for micro.one are coming from micro.blog? And why? Me by curiosity but I don’t want to take the place of someone else who is entirely new to micro.blog. Dilemma.

I’m moving to a new (temporary) apartment in two days. It’s the first time in 17 years that I’m changing places. It’s crazy how much we gather over the years. We’re giving out a lot of stuff (also selling on FB Marketplace). It’s like spring-cleaning, right in the middle of winter!

I started looking at possibly getting a mechanical keyboard, just for fun. I do love Apple Magic keyboards, but I also have fond memories of very old mechanical keyboards like the clicky IBM AT keyboard. There are so many design variables that make each keyboard unique that I just don’t know how I’m going to select one without actually visiting a physical store to try them all!

Hello 2025! 🎉 Happy new year folks! So this is it, that was my very first post of 2025.

I have twice as many followers on Bluesky than on Mastodon. Don’t know how many followers on Micro.blog… because… Micro.blog. 🙃

Any Final Cut Pro users here? What advice would you give to someone who knows about Screenflow for recording his YouTube videos but is looking for something more powerful… mostly doing screen recording with my face as a médaillon…

I love this panel that Ghost presents after hitting “Publish and share”. That was the last edition for 2024.

Finished watching this video about a Macintosh IIfx computer full restore to working condition. This brings so many memories and contains some really cool tech stuff like this SCSI card emulator. Wow! I would love to see this in action in person.

Fun fact: I often play “Did You Know?” with my wife to let her know about special features on her Apple Watch, iPad or other tech devices. She doesn’t like to remember things and the fact that many things are hidden by default in the Apple ecosystem.

I still have three more articles to publish before the end of the year: one about Medium, the final edition of the Ephemeral Scrapbook, and a review of my creative year.

On Header Images and Creative Liberty
Manuel Moreale link posting on the subject of header images on blog posts: “I’ll go one step further Nelson, I have a growing hatred towards pointless images in blog posts in general, I don’t even care if they’re AI-generated or not. If they’re there as part of the content then by all means use them but if you’re just adding a stock image from unsplash to make the page “feel” more interesting then you’re just part of the broader problem that’s plaguing the web.

Something acting up since early morning on my Ghost hosted blog. Every few hours, I get a new registered subscriber to the free tier of my newsletter using a randomized name but a real user email address. 😕🤨

In my family, relatives are purchasing Macs in bulk: three Mac mini computers and one MacBook Pro. I’m quite perplexed about the reasons behind this sudden surge in Mac purchases. 🤯

I am not the biggest fan of meta blog posts, also called blogging about blogging. I do think they’re sometimes useful but they’re also quite uninspiring for me to read. And that’s why I try to stay away from the topic for the most part.
I find this statement surprising coming from the author behind the popular “People & Blog” series. Maybe I’m missing something here.

A strange image of Steve walking in an open space area (probably in One Infinite Loop). The visual mood of this image triggers other possibilities.. like Steve walking in heaven… I think I’m either exhausted or too sensitive.

New Bluesky subscribers rush seems to be easing because I’m stuck at 153 followers for the last week!

In recent days I’ve been thinking and imagining what could be a useful and powerful WebClipper for Craft. I’ve built a shared document for that purpose. Have a look.
