• After more than 20 years, I published my first dirty project

  I also use it for its Popular Bookmarks - I subscribed to its RSS feed in NewsBlur and always have something interesting to read when my other feeds are Empty (they rarely are). - Source: dev.to / 7 months ago

• Killed by Google

  There's a bunch of replacements. I like https://newsblur.com but there are 4-6 large-ish similar sites. That said, partially what people miss is the relative cultural hegemony of Google Reader. It was RSS front-and-center, prominently featured on websites, supported by the biggest company in tech, with all the users there and able to take advantage of the (sparse) social features. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• Ask HN: Alternatives to Reddit

  Https://newsblur.com/ I think this might be pretty close to what you're looking for. It's an RSS feed reader with a platform for discussions. - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago

• With Reddit sunsetting, I'm looking back to RSS. What are the best current tools?

  Currently I'm on Newsblur. But it's really convoluted to Self host - to my "shame" I use their cloud hosted app with premium. It's (over)laden with features that I actually use and cheaper than for example Feedly. Source: 12 months ago

• Ask HN: What other news feeds do you read besides Hacker News?

  I start every day with RSS subscriptions using NewsBlur (https://newsblur.com) and Reeder (https://reederapp.com). I've also set up a page so other people can see my subscriptions / what I'm reading: https://sources.werd.io. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Chapter 02 pg 164

  Uhhh so on Comic Fury (the platform that hosts our comic's main site) there's the option to include a transcript, which is intended to just be so you can make your comic's dialogue searchable, if you enable the search function on your comic's site. Source: over 1 year ago

• Any fan-comic writers?

  Heck yeah fan comic artist here! You'll find more of us on ComicFury. I wished there was more of us also on AO3, but it's formatting doesn't really make it easy lol. Source: over 1 year ago

• Is there a platform for more mature webcomics than Webtoon's?

  However, ComicFury is a good site for posting mature comics, I've found. There's a very extensive tagging & filtering system, so the site isn't as worried about little kids coming across mature content accidentally. Source: almost 2 years ago

• You know of a good community of older comic creators?

  I dunno if this is what you're looking for- but a couple of months ago I found this site: Comicfury to host my comics because all the big ones favor scroll and I like page format. There are teenagers there on the forums but the average age of forum participants is 20-40 (with a lot of over/under) and it has a very active forum section. Source: almost 2 years ago

• To all writers who post fanfics on unconventional websites (sites that aren't AO3, FF.Net, or Wattpad), what's it like, why do you do it, and what site do you post your fics to?

  Because my preferred way to tell stories is comics. As much as I love AO3, it's not comic-friendly. Thus my main place to read/post is Comic Fury. Source: almost 2 years ago
