I've got some basic feed fetching and subscribing logic done for Sublime Feed. Looks OK so far. It handles a feed URL and adds a subscription straight away. If it finds multiple feeds it will give you an option to choose it. I might add a "description" also if it exists. Now to grab posts... πŸ˜‹

So happy to see all those amazing posts on the Scribbles Explore page β€” some are so very personal and open! Thank you all that write on Scribbles. It gives me hope that there are really great people and content out there.

And so it begins. Server set up and running. Deploys are working... now I just gotta actually start with some useful stuff πŸ˜‹

"Well, it's been a little while since I wrote an update here. The truth is, is that it's been moving pretty fast!"

β€” Updates and a changelog on the Scribbles Blog

Let's see if anyone notices 😋 #changelog

If you're using the awesome Pika blogging platform, and want to use Tinylytics for analytics (you really should), it's totally baked in now β€” including some others. Super exciting. Very thankful to Good Enough to do this in a great way! ✌️❀️

Made a few minor UI tweaks to Tinylytics. Now you can hide the Kudos and Uptime tabs on a site by site basis (subscribers only). Also tweaked the way the embed code and site id are shown when it's all working (less cluttered). Plus some other minor things that only I will notice.

I guess I made a start to my feed reader. Copied across some basics from Scribbles... and it's up and running. Just need to fill in the blanks now πŸ€ͺ

If you're using shoutouts, and maybe you should if you don't, I have tweaked the way shoutouts are shown in the dashboard β€” inactive ones are now hidden by default and they have their own dedicated page. Just hit the "Inactive" button and Bob's Your Uncle.

Quick tweak to the dashboard on Tinylytics. It'll now page sites if you have more than 12. Why 12? No one knows. Change that setting on your user profile page to suit your needs.
