Hey! I'm glad you like it :) I can't predict the future, but I can say that I'm a team of one who isn't looking for VC funding. Even if I was, I doubt they'd fund me. I'm going to keep this platform alive for a

Regarding the tags, great suggestion. Will add it to my list. And regarding your earlier point, I agree. I'm yet to clear up the positioning of the site. I'm struggling with 2 separate, but intertwined angles. 1. A low-pressure p

Hey, yes. On your dashboard, you can click on the export button next to your list of Published posts. It will export a CSV file with all your posts.

I'm going to screenshot this thread so I can look at it repeatedly. Thank you for this.

Thanks, Chris! I didn't launch here though, I was just pleasantly surprised because a kind soul decided to share it :)

Also, I forgot to mention. I don't have any plans of getting $$ from VCs as of now. Nicheless is a side project that I run because I believe it should exist. I hope that doesn't change in the future, unless I have no other option.

Hey! Thank you for giving Nicheless a try. I read your post a little while ago :) Regarding your questions: 1. The URL will auto generate and append a digit to the end in case the title of the post has already been taken before. 2. I don&#x

I'm very camera shy. But thanks for the suggestion. I might do it in the future if I can muster enough courage.

Thank you! Might do a dark mode in the future!

Hey. I had a conversation with one of my closest friends a few days ago, and this is exactly how I described what I want Nicheless to become. I wrote something similar here that might resonate: https://nicheless.blog/post&#x

Yes! Exactly the way I see it as well. A layer 1 ecosystem for thoughts outside my mind. Substack is a layer 2 that is much more polished. Thanks for signing up :)

Thank you, Benji!

Hey! I just noticed that! You're the first person to write in a different script, so it's not a problem I experienced until now. Will figure out a way to make the URL neater by default, although you can currently edit it as well.

Thank you! If you're curious about how to use it, I personally use it as a layer 1 for my thoughts. It helps me think about them more deeply than I would otherwise do if I was just talking to myself or writing in a private journal. Eve

Hey! I'm sorry you find the title intimidating. You could just use a random character in your title, or even a whitespace, to achieve the effect of a title-free place to post. Regarding the individual URL, if you don't want to cli

haha, I've never used Mastodon, but maybe you're on to something!

by louispereira 4y ago
Hey! I've found that constraints make it easier for people to take action. The word limit does that for me. It's long enough to allow for nuance around a single topic, and short enough to not be intimidating to start, as well as t

The goal here is to help people create and communicate in a one to many & many to one manner within small communities. I'm still working on making it easier or more obvious to do that, but I'm going to keep trying!

by louispereira 4y ago
Agreed. I haven't solved that problem myself. Most of my own friends haven't switched to Nicheless, although most of them don't write elsewhere either. To me, nicheless is an ideal space for those that are afraid to publish

Yup, that's an interesting idea. Will keep a note of it when I decide to run the experiment. Thank you!

Hey Asim. I appreciate you taking the time to thoughtfully (and elegantly) lay out your thoughts. At the moment, I don't want Nicheless to perform a similar function to Twitter. I love Twitter and use it daily, but I find it useful as

Thank you! I appreciate it.

Hey. You're right. But there are lots of folks who don't have the time to build and maintain a site themselves. Besides, I'm hoping to make Nicheless more than just a micro blogging platform. My goal is to make it into a spac

Oh that's strange. Not sure why that's happening but I'll look into it when I can. Thanks for bringing it to my notice.

Long enough to allow for nuance. Short enough to compel clarity of thought. That's the goal :)
