I had no idea of the size and variety of the Fediverse! It has me feeling a bit overwhelmed. I’m enjoying BookWyrm very much; it’s the GoodReads/LibraryThing replacement I’ve been looking for for years.
I love the simplicity of Paper.wf for blogging. It’s truly elegant; I just click the link and start typing. But as far as I can tell there’s no way for others to find my blog or for me to find other blogs on the site. There’s no browse or follow feature. Nor can anyone comment on my posts! Those seem to me to be HUGE omissions.
Have you used any Fediverse blogging options? What are they like? And what other Fediverse services would you recommend? Other than Mastodon, I’ve already tried that (it didn’t excite me).
Try writefreely. Its a blogging thing that supports markdown and can look super nice
Is that related to Paper.wf? The wf apparently stands for “write freely”.
Paper.wf is using Write Freely. You can see Paper.wf in their instance list here: https://writefreely.org/instances
Interesting! But do other instances have more features? Paper.wf seems incredibly feature-light. You can’t browse other blogs, you can’t follow them, you can’t comment on entries or receive comments…I mean, it’s unbelievably bare bones. Beautiful, but isolated-feeling. I’m typing into a void!
