It’s a YC company. I don’t see much special for it, let’s see how long it lasts. At least Medium did some very unique things with their text editor (I challenge anyone to find a more enjoyable _writing_ experience than Medium in the world of online editors, barring Google Docs)
- baby 4y agoWhat? Medium is horrible to write. We basically migrated from it because it’s like word. Who likes to write using word besides non-techies? And even then, I’d chose wordpress over medium any day because of how restrictive and gated medium is. Their rss feeds are also so hidden it’s annoying.
- math-dev 4y agoYou may not agree, but from a technical / UX perspective it is impressive - the rest of their UI platform sucks but I think their editor is top notch https://medium.engineering/why-contenteditable-is-terrible-122d8a40e480 https://medium.engineering/why-contenteditable-is-terrible-1...
- rajman187 4y agohave you tried Quip (https://quip.com https://quip.com)
- math-dev 4y agoHow is this related to blogging / text editing?

- math-dev 4y agoInteresting - thanks, I’ll check it out sometime
