I just built the merge with the branch that enables blog themes, including a few default themes. So, I've enabled the blog for everyone. If you want to test it out... it's live! 😃

Blogging via micro-blogging

Blogging and maintaining a separate social feed is difficult. My primary interest is to be able to do it all in one platform and also convert existing posts into blog posts if they need to be persisted as a "body of work".

Current state

Currently, I end up copying and pasting that into a blog post, but that's a bit of friction.

Desired state

The idea is that if you end up writing a series of posts and it becomes something that is more meaty and has some value for longevity it can be persisted by simply changing the post type to a blog, after the fact.

Rationale

it's cognitively easier to write a series of posts instead of sitting down to write a blog post.
