I may try not posting for 30 days; the daily blogger pin seems too elusive, the reset arbitrary. 👾

@cn 🤔 Strange, I go to your actual site and the posts are there but some look to be missing from the m.b timeline.

@colinwalker my st[r]eak went through November as well; there always seem to be gaps :o]

@colinwalker is that Murphy’s or Manton’s Law?

@colinwalker Micro.blog only sees the status, and image RSS feeds

@cn I haven't gotten the 30-day pin yet either and I've been using Micro.blog longer than anyone. It's trickier than it seems. 29 days, then miss a day, and it resets.

@manton would be fun to see how many people have gotten each badge. That 30 day one is the only one I don’t have. I assume replies would not count towards that?

@manton Have you had any more thoughts on making having your own site count for the “Custom domain" pin?

@manton how about not resetting it if the previous and following seven days aren't skipped? (I think that's how it's done in Pedometer++)

@hjertnes Then those of us who earned it fair and square will feel the pin has been cheapened. After all, it's only 30 days! I did 133 days, 30 was easy. We need a harder pin to earn, not easier.

@Ron I don't take the pin thing that serious

@Ron @hjertnes Instead of changing the 30-day pin, I think adding a couple more related pins would be good. For example, "50 Posts" (anytime).

@hjertnes @manton Heavens no, not serious! It's not meant to be a torture or punishment, or even an endurance contest. It does require a decision to do it & then enough mindfulness to make it a light priority to get it done each day. It's not meant to happen accidentally.

@manton Sure, that would be fine. You could also add one for posting 100 days in a row, a nice round number.

@manton some non-streak based pins would be a good add. 100, 1000 and 10,000 posts!

@jthingelstad @manton I second this!

@cn Looking back, your streak seems to begin on the 6th so you’ve got a few days left.
