• One of the greatest user interface disasters in history

  Mastodon is a microblogging service, so not meant for large bodies of text. This is why the text entry box is small, the columns are somewhat narrow (especially in deck mode) etc. Platforms like https://writefreely.org/ , which are designed to be for blogging and long-form writing, are the place to write this. Write Freely federates so one can follow accounts and interact with posts via Mastodon etc. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• Which platform for occasional blog posts?

  An alternative to Plume is WriteFreely, which is a pretty clean & simple experience. Just don't expect to much regarding customization. Source: 11 months ago

• ActivityPub server that can run on Docker with external db?

  And since you've mentioned you want to write a blog, take a look at WriteFreely: https://writefreely.org/. Source: 12 months ago

• Writefreely

  I'm not sure what you've tried to install, but WriteFreely is Open Source and thus free of charge. There is commercial hosting of it, eg. write.as, but with those you don't have to worry about installing it. Source: about 1 year ago

• Newbie Question

  Instead of joining a Mastodon server, have you considered joining a write.freely server? Write.freely is a decentralized platform for writers that integrates the ActivityPub protocol, so anyone in the Fediverse can interact with your posts. This may be more well suited for your needs, although if you still want to join a Mastodon server there are many good answers in this thread. Source: about 1 year ago

• Researchers, please replace SQLite with DuckDB now

  Substack has problems too. For hosted foss services, write.as (https://write.as/) and bearblog (https://bearblog.dev/) are good. If self-hosting, the choices are infinite. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

• Link Building for Non-Scumbags: Build Authority Without Being Awful

  Take the site write.as, for instance, which has a 70 domain authority (Moz) and a 79 domain rating (Ahrefs).  Both of those are very high scores and represent the kind of links that would probably retail for at least $400 on the gray market for backlinks.  Write.as will happily give you as many of these as you want for $6 per month. - Source: dev.to / 8 months ago

• Writer trying to decide between the Kindle Scribe & Remarkable 2

  On that same just write mentality there's also, https://write.as/. There are several communities that run the same site, but basically it's a blog site that has no comments, no views none of the BS and let you focus on writing. Source: 11 months ago

• It’s 2023. Start using JavaScript Map and Set

  I also wish write.as were more popular. It's like old Medium, but less popular but with a more reader-friendly business model and self-host-able (AGPL v3). Source: 12 months ago

• Full screen writing app for android?

  Perhaps https://write.as will work for you? It’s very minimalist. Source: about 1 year ago
