Added one of the oldest requested features to Micro.blog today: editing the slug for a post. There’s a new page for managing URL paths. A couple other things will go here later, like batch delete, to avoid cluttering the main editing interface.

ChatGPT Pulse is my favorite product of the year. It’s expensive, but it’s the first new thing I’ve seen in software in years. Love reading about what it’s come up for me each day. Here’s a snapshot, because it knows I’m thinking about Spain. (And if I scroll, it has actual work / code topics too.)
