Last night we had about 70 people sign up for Satyrn in around 12 hours. I think there's still a need for this sort of thing, maybe in particular with people who used them before. I don't necessarily think it's something that needs to be done every day, but knowing it's here is very satisfying. Please test the data download if you'd like. 

For me, personally, this sort of public dispersal of brain toxins was always incredibly theuraputic, something I didn't really come to realize until it was stripped away. Not necessarily just Mindsay, but blogging as a whole. I continued to utilize Livejournal until recently with my learning of their Russian acquisition. I always appreciated how Mindsay felt very much like you could built a little micro-community through the visitor list. I consider that a vital feature. Nobody else ever had that, really. You always felt like an island. If someone found you it was entirely by accident. 

That beiing said, privacy sometimes is important. Private and group entries are working, alledgedly, but if there's ever any breakdown of that let me know immediately. I consider that a world-breaking stop the trains bug. There's no mysterious admin here, it's just me and the people who coded it. 

Besides this--


I have a moderate to medium sized bug list/req. changes for next week so far. 

-Clicking reply on a comment doesn't archive it (doesn't un-bold it)
-Recent visitors list breaks after ~11 people come to your blog. This is duct taped for now but if you saw blogs being unreadable last night that's why
-Clicking a date on the blog calendar, then another date while on that date breaks everything
-Voting for a post on the users blog instead of on a specific entry casts a vote for every votable entry 
-Rings duplicate sometimes. shrug. 
-Some optimizations are needed, especially for mobile. The landing page is too large and takes people, on average, about 5-7 seconds to load according to analytics, which is an eternity and unneccessarily high data usage for a text based website. 
-A couple of views are still broken on mobile (Blog archive for one)

PS, if you start a ring, make sure you approve applicants or no one can see your posts.
