WordPress’s new Link Fixer is in some ways similar to the archiving features that we’ve had baked into Micro.blog for years. But I like their option to routinely fix broken links. I’ve been thinking maybe a report that makes it easier to do this, even if it’s not automatic.

Dave Rupert wants to see more writing about making things better:
It’s cheap and easy to complain and say “[Thing] is bad”, but it’s also free to share what you think would be better.
Good post. Complaining can sometimes be valuable, but also too often we target people instead of ideas and institutions, achieving nothing. The constant negativity can be overwhelming.

There’s a fun discussion on today’s Hard Fork about Moltbook. We live in an increasingly bizarre world. I don’t want slop to overwhelm human-centered social networks, but I’m also mostly fine with AI-only networks like Sora or Moltbot because it’s segregated.

Brett Terpstra blogs about his upcoming app BlogBook:
This is a new app I’m publishing as a complement to Marked 3. It generates a “Book” from WordPress, Micro.blog, or Ghost blogs.
Sounds great. It will generate a table of contents and can export in various formats including PDF and ePub.

This Anthropic post is pretty much what I would write too, as a reaction to ads coming in OpenAI. I actually do believe OpenAI when they say they won’t let ads influence answers, but people are going to think that anyway. People still think Instagram uses the phone’s microphone to listen randomly!
