Micro Social started as a personal project to solve a simple problem — I wanted a better way to use micro.blog. Something that felt more customisable, modern, and streamlined, while still staying true to the simplicity of the platform.

Why Build Micro Social?

Over time, I found myself wanting more control over my micro.blog experience. I wrote about some of these frustrations and ideas along the way:

• Making Micro Social – How this app came to be.
• Micro Social and Threading – Improving the way conversations flow.
• Your Timeline, Your Way – The need for a more personal feed.
• Reading and Books – A better way to track and share books.

Micro.blog is an incredible platform, but I wanted a cleaner, more intuitive way to engage with my timeline, conversations, and the things I care about most—books, photos, and blogging. So, I built Micro Social for me, but I hope you like it too.

What Makes Micro Social Special?

✅ Customisable Feed – Tailor your timeline to focus on what matters most.

📸 Photos-Only Timeline – A dedicated space for visual storytelling.

📚 Books Integration – Track, share, and discover books effortlessly.

💬 Seamless Conversations – Follow discussions with improved readability.

🎨 Minimalist Design – A clean, distraction-free interface.

What About TestFlight?

Now that the app is available in the App Store, the public TestFlight will phase out. This build is actually a little better than the launch one as I had to cut features out to get it approved.

Supporters

I can’t thank my supporters enough for helping me get through the testing phase and also funding the developer account to get this launched. Supporters will have access to features before any one else going forward. Their TestFlight will continue with access to Smart Mentions, Smart Replies and Post Templates incoming.

If you want to become a supporter and support development I’d love for you to join here.

Where is x feature

Smart Mentions, Smart Replies, Book Recommendations, Post Templates and Follow Suggestions are almost ready for launch. As I posted yesterday, they will be behind a tip jar because these features took considerable work and effort to build. Alternatively, you can join my supports and have access to them earlier and without having to upgrade.

Any questions feel free to drop me an email in reply, go steady I’m still learning!
