@maotsu but maybe you've already done that? I'm probably not helping am I? 😵‍💫 Anyway, good luck finding something that works for you 🙏

@maotsu 🤔 you should send out a general request for info, tips, recommendations on here and I'm sure you'll get some good replies 🙌

@maotsu Ah, I see. Flickr was always the go-to but there are others like 500px etc. Good luck! :blobcatcoffee:

I have a feeling it’s time to bring my micro.blog back to life.

Btw. maybe some of you know a good place for a photo portfolio? I already use Glass, which I really like and value, but I need something additional.

@maotsu Hi! 👋 Maybe try @pixelfed for photos 📸
