Yesterday I wrote about renewing my Micro Blog subscription.
I decided to not only renew, but upgrade to a premium subscription so I can access all the great features and best support the site and its maintainers.

I only posted twice on “micro.blog” this year, but what I posted is very important to me and very personal (ie, not something I’d want on Facebook).
I see my primary audience as my nieces and nephews and their descendants. Hopefully, when I pass, these posts will remain available for posterity.
Each year, I question paying the $50 annual basic subscription price. But when I look at the site, I realize how valuable it is for me as a place to record bits of my personal history and as a beacon of the ‘Free Internet’. That is to say, a site not run by a commercial interest or the state.
So, for the same reason I continue to support the EFF and Wikipedia financially, I will continue to support this site.
