You can actually do almost everything on micro.blog for free: you can use the web interface to post/reply/comment and can syndicate from your RSS feed into the public timeline from your own site — no cost. It’s $5 per month to have a hosted micro blog, and I think there’s another tier for micro podcast hosting. I use my Hugo blog to post into the system and have been thinking of hooking up my hand rolled tilde club feed, too ... if I ever get around to it. I’d say that for free it’s worth checking out, as there’s a lot of common ethos between m.b and tildes.

Based on some of the stuff I've read in this thread, I think there might be some interest in http://micro.blog . It's a sort of a social network mashed up with a blogging tool and network. I've only just started using it (although I kickstarted it way back), and my experience has been positive. Reminds me a bit of the early days of personal blogs.

That actually looks pretty cool! The $5/month charge seems a little...
optimistic? As a developer, I really like the API centric approach, and
it looks like it has built-in integration with mastodon. I'll definitely
keep an eye on this, thanks!
