| What happened to the microblog? |
| --- |
| -A microblog ran at paulca.com until July 2026. It's preserved as a |
| -[static archive](/microblog/), and the old `/posts/N` URLs still resolve. |
| +The microblog was a Ruby on Rails app, running on a single Hetzner box. Ruby on Rails was created by a fascist who I no longer want to have any association with. It was an experiment in having a personal micro blog and federating to Mastodon and Bluesky, both products that I believe are fundamentally flawed in different ways. An archive is preserved here, and you can see the code at https://github.com/paulca/pterodon |
