If you need a writing space that doesn't disappear when AWS goes down, we're always here ☺️ (sorry, Substack)

We've just released #WriteFreely v0.16, with a ton of improvements for the fediverse, including support for Likes, the Creator tag, and better look for your articles on microblogging platforms! Read about all the new changes and grab the latest version on our blog: blog.writefreely.org/version-0-16

Everything is pretty much ready to go, code-wise on #WriteFreely v0.16! Now just updating the docs and this should be out this week. https://github.com/writefreely/writefreely/milestone/27?closed=1

Just found this today -- an @obsidian.md plugin to publish posts directly to Write.as! Works really nicely. github.com/encima/obsid... #WriteAs #WriteFreely #Obsidian

The AI era will reward character more than credentials. I wrote about why resilience, conscientiousness & adaptability matter more than ever — and how a friend is teaching his kids that by having them run his bookstore. Read here: write.as/dankaufman/r...

More people should know that write.as exists. You don't have to use substack, which is ran by nazis[1] and extorts personal data from your readers[2]. Sources in🧵1/2

Lately I’ve been hearing from smart, capable friends who are quietly struggling — with layoffs, stalled careers, and rising pressure. There’s more hardship out there than we think. I wrote about it here: write.as/dankaufman/h...

Just made a small improvement to how articles show up on fediverse platforms like Mastodon! write.as/updates/we-j...

i'm unfurling myself from my desk chair and every single one of my joints is cracking. blinking owlishly in the light. it's been a whole year. i've finally written another blog post. this one is about data hoarding and music <3 write.as/delete44/tra...

write.as/wolfinwool/w... We chased the day westward, but the light still slipped away. Head out for adventure. Head out on the highway. Ready for whatever comes my way. As CamperVan Beethoven rolled away from our cozy hole in the ground, she looked at me auspiciously. “What?” I proffered.

I wrote a short post about ny thinking of creating a "world of play" by expanding the magic circle write.as/trollish-del...

El Aula Virtual como herramienta de accesibilidad en un centro preferente TEA. Post muy largo, con muchas referencias, que espero que sea útil. Gracias a @write.as por su ayuda. #autismo #accesibilidad #DUA write.as/undivaga/el-...

Rather than stay on trash sites that will not be named, I've been building out a social space for my arts stuff with a combination of Bsky and simple blogs at @write.as It's pretty good. A little bit of that web 2.0 feel.

Just two days left to grab our 5-year plan at a steep discount! write.as/deals/a-deca...

We just added support for the fediverse:creator tag, so your blog posts can be associated with your profile elsewhere on the #fediverse! write.as/updates/now-...

Some weird things going on with email right now on @write_as... sometimes emails are sending while it's disabled on a blog; other times, we're not sending at all, after the other day when I put in some failsafes for the initial issue. Probably going to add some better logging that everyone can […]

Would highly recommend checking out @ghost.org, @buttondown.com, @beehiiv.com, and @write.as. Many more, but these are some of the best option, imo!

The best time to migrate off Substack was the first time they doubled down on platforming fascists, years ago. The next best time to leave is now.

At this point it's not just about interoperability, it's about keeping your spaces in your control and safe from billionaires enshitifying your experience for more capital extraction. The internet isn't as fun as it used to be and it's pretty obvious why.

Start your own website. Run your own blog. Use decentralized and open-sourced platforms @ghost.org is a great open-sourced blogging platform and website builder Pixelfed is doing great work for images and runs on the social web Support open social projects so your homes on the web don't fall apart

Just two days left on our Early December sale! write.as/deals/decemb...

The first of an infrequent and irregular series of very short 'musings' that don't justify a full 3,000 word post ... or, don't yet justify it 😉. 'Welcome' or 'About' explains where they're not simply posted here or to Mastodon. #beekeeping @write.as beemusings.theapiarist.org/smoker-fuel

Seeing this, most useful and quickest way to getting ATproto into @write.as could be comments.

As a sort of offering of friendship and hospitality, my first post on the new blog is a #soup #recipe. It's cock-a-leekie, and it's delicious and warming, and appropriate to help fend off Storm Bert or whatever his name is. If you make it and enjoy it, let me know! write.as/robinoak/an-...

Here's a little piece on the battle cry of nocturnal creatures. And a bunch of sketch pages: write.as/wolfinwool/n...

For those keeping score at home, I've settled on @write.as to dive into the world of #blogging (again). The platform seems pretty straightforward, uses #Markdown to make the magic happen, and the price was right (free plans are free). So... Hello World.

There are many ways to promote your book, not only on the Internet. But first I will tell you about boring paid advertising on the World Wide Web, and later I will tell you about unusual ways of promotion👇 write.as/alex-votykov... #books #writing #literature #author #writers

Another update in upcoming @writefreely v0.16: Archive pages! This makes it easy to see a full list of all posts you've ever made on your blog, sorted by year. If you're able to, please help test and review this change: https://github.com/writefreely/writefreely/pull/1128 #WriteFreely […]
