long live the personal blog
I‘m wondering why we stopped having blogs and writing essays? I want to hear people’s thoughts. I want to share my thoughts! and I don’t want to see these thoughts in a few sentences on twitter or a short Instagram post. I need a 1000+ word essay with images, links, references, book recs, and everything else. I wanna know what’s going on inside your brain.

There are a lot of serious ppl doing serious thing but it’s also a nice easy way to “publish”.

Love Substack, but I think writers deserve agency and complete ownership over their work without feeling like they’re: 1. Stuck in a social media echochamber OR 2. Dependent on the Substack model to the point where their brand can’t survive leaving the platform (if they’re forced to migrate, like with TT) I’m very pro-“independent blog“ websites bc you quite literally carve out a small domain space on the internet JUST for your work — and you can throw in a bunch more personalizations (ex: colorful themes, graphics, coding stuff by hand, etc) that rly help make it become its own cozy space on the internet for yourself and your readers :)
