I've wanted something like this too, mostly for learning and food for thought. Memo tried to carve out a niche ("Facebook is for photos. Twitter for discussing sports and Donald Trump. Memo is for learning.") (https://web.archive.org/web/20161021001811/http://memoapp.co/home https://web.archive.org/web/20161021001811/http://memoapp.co...) but they ultimately threw in the towel. (http://memoapp.co/ http://memoapp.co/) I doubt there's going to be a successful new product for this because Pinterest and Twitter cover the use cases pretty well and are hotter media (à la McLuhan). Images are mostly a superset of text use cases. You can always put great text into an image, and doing so gives is more context and emotional color. Also funny, if you search Hacker News for "pinterest text" you get this Ask HN and a Show HN from six years ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5558714 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5558714 So it looks like QuoteRed also tried and gave up. Maybe an open source app would work because it wouldn't need much of a sustainability model, just a few passionate dogfooding developers.
