One personal website is enough for me – disassociated.com

Not everyone wants to post content on social media though. In that case then, I can see the point of something like Micro.blog. I don’t know a whole lot about the platform, but it seems similar to the likes of Mastodon, Threads, or Bluesky: it’s basically for micro-blogging. But even with something like Micro.blog, you still come back to the problem of content ownership, and the concern such platforms, like the social media channels, could close-down just like that.

I battled with that idea at first but you can definitely export all of your data in a matter of seconds if you ever wanted to go somewhere else. And it’s based on Hugo so it’s possible to export everything and convert it to a self hosted Hugo setup if you wanted to.

It’s kinda like a hosting provider in itself, in a lot of ways. You get a website and a micro blog platform all in one.
