Hmm, might be able to build a Tumblr importer pretty easily, especially since auth is already implemented for cross-posting 🤔

Going along with this, by v1.0 we'll have built-in support for getting certificates from Let's Encrypt.

You won't need a reverse proxy in front of in v0.4 -- now it can handle secure traffic on its own.

Another idea it made me think of: what if instead of comments right now, mentions just forwarded to a connected Mastodon / Pleroma / whatever account? Not sure how that'd technically work, but might have to look into it.

Recent @matt blog post getting sent around the fediverse reminded me this is pretty critical for v1.0: blog data caching.

Got both of these finished -- really pleased about the admin page editing functionality, in particular. Will be much better for people starting up their own instances, and customizing it how they like.

Tomorrow I'll release v0.3.

That's two Mondays in a row, so maybe I'll keep up the weekly release schedule until we reach v1.0

All important reported issues are out of the way for v0.3 🎊

So now it's time to get some *new* features into before this next release:

- Setting a `created` date when publishing a new post (good for importing and scheduling posts) - phabricator.write.as/T532
- Maybe the ability to edit some standard pages on multi-user instances, e.g. the About and Privacy pages - phabricator.write.as/T533

Yeah, this probably has to do with how Masto handles the `Delete` activity. Going to leave it out for now.
