It is 2021, hosting is dirt cheap, there are proven ways to create a blog and share with your audience. Paying to someone for the "privilege" of participation is not valuable. Investing in your own brand is valuable. If you have social network needs use established platforms for sharing, but link to your own site.
And one more thing: Making a service iPhone only is not cool. Apple is not cool anymore.
- poniko 5y agoI think you grossly overestimates the the technical knowledge of the general public .. but yea making a service iPhone only is just lazy ..

People said the same when YouTube became a thing. > And one more thing: Making a service iPhone only is not cool. Apple is not cool anymore. Fully agree here.
- nbzso 5y agoThe difference about before and now is clear. Cost of self-hosting is low and increased algorithmic control over content is making UX unbearable for artistic use cases. That is my point. It is obvious that content silos will be monetized and explored to the infinity, but there is a point where "the common denominator" sanitized content is barely bearable. :)
