This is where I share short updates and notes as I build Pure Commons. Every post is syndicated to Mastodon, and there's an RSS feed if that's more your thing.
For the past 6 weeks or so, I've been doing a major re-factor of Pure Blog to clean some stuff up. I'm ready to release it, but it will be a breaking update, as it includes changes to the update process.
So people won't be able to update from within #PureBlog, but I'm not sure how to manage this? Should I just communicate this everywhere and hope people see it? Or should I mark the next release as pre-release in GitHub so the in-app updater doesn't work?
I'm open to any other ideas to..
Fantastic post from @li on adding IndieWeb support to your #PureBlog site.
I've added some extra features to the #PureBlog blogroll. You can now filter by language, browse latest posts from everyone (also by language), AND subscribe to the aggregated feed ALSO by language.
There's been some back and forth on creating a #PureBlog Blogroll recently after a couple of very cool people from the community decided to make unofficial ones.
Anyway, there's now an official Pure Blog Roll, so if you're running Pure Blog, get your site added!
v1.5.0 of #PureComments just dropped. It adds a "remember me" function for logging in (90 days) and filtering by post or commenter.

ICYMI - I've added a Roadmap page to the Pure Commons site that lists everything I'd like to build across the Pure ecosystem. I'll try to keep it as up to date as possible.
Translations for #PureComments are done, but I've only included English and (AI generated) German. Please feel free to submit PRs with other languages.
⚠️ Make sure you read the changelog on this one too, as there's a breaking change in the update process.
With the new features that have come to #PureBlog over the last few releases, I've updated the "Title-less Notes" how to guide that shows how to have a proper separate notes page, with its own feed.
It even includes an optional #Mastodon cross-poster!
Just dropped v2.3.0 of #PureBlog which includes a completely redesigned dashboard. Here's a demo:
OK, v2.0.0 of #PureBlog is out the door and contains a tonne of new goodies. Because of this there's a bit of wonky update for this one though!
All details in the release notes:
Hello, world.
