I was going to suggest ello (https://ello.co https://ello.co), but it looks like they've pivoted from a general social network to something for artists (which probably makes sense for them).
For those who feel like they might fit with Ello, maybe check it out
- dredmorbius 9y agoIn fairness, that was the original plan. What's sad is that a modest number of features would make Ello a great text/writing platform. Those have not been forthcoming, and there's little sign they ever will be. I've dialled back activity accordingly.
- hardwaresofton 9y agoI get the feeling making something like that a reality would entail getting lots of poets/writers to get on Ello, then basically campaigning to get "awareness" of text based art. Ello is pretty beautifully designed and the stuff I saw some great art on there, so I'm happy that they're doing what they do best.
- dredmorbius 9y agoEll had (and still has) a bunch of writers. We've just never had the basics and most have wandered. Ksenia Anske, a Russian-American fiction author, was on of the last holdouts. Trenton Lee Tiemeyer des great poetry. Good luck actually finding their work.
