lowkey this might be the goat social media platform theres like no slop on there and people actually seem passionate abt their interests especially the ones publishing long form articles and posts

u on substack but can’t even stack subs

short form content will find its way through like it always does...only a matter of time

Is it free? Still not sure what it is

its free or you can choose to sub to certain writers and they can paywall certain articles.

I think its dope tho

if they add reels or shorts in any way shape or form its over

Thought it was a coding thing

I heard ppl are already moving to alternatives

thats github

May check it out then ty

I’ve read a few articles on there but I can’t see myself visiting it daily or anything

I thought that was the boning one? That’s Girthub

Yes but so much slop on there as well

no I’m not pretentious

I still think people should create and host their blog site cause u never know when s***s gotta get shutdown / discontinued / become a shell of its former self

Like livejournal , myspace , etc

there‘s like a tweet type function but even the ones i seen seemed more intentful than regular short form posts

i published a lil article on there and somebody read it n subbed to me off it that was the most rewarding sm notification i ever received

oh no plenty of slop there too, my friend. Just in the form of blogs

how do they even find you? hashtags on the thinkpiece/article?

isnt it just like patreon?

there’s no slop on there

fr you do gotta watch out for the clearly AI written s*** or redpill, femcel bait stuff too

Most of the s*** on there is basically video essayists from YouTube type stuff writing their s*** down instead of narrating and editing a video. It’s filled with ‘intelligent’ influencer type people, so generally expect that level of (mid) content. Just like on YouTube there are some genuinely great informative writers on there, but they are far and few in between.

Actually the most interesting people on there are professors from top universities who explain their academic research on there in an easier to read form.

it's fine once you ignore guys like daniel tutt

i associate it with alt-tech for some reason
