🥳 Hello fellow makers, I'm super excited to launch Writeby, the simplest blogging platform made for writers. Writeby was born out of my frustration with Medium's platform, especially its paywall. I wanted a platform that's simple & beautiful—a platform that enables writers to just write and share their content freely. Really hope you'll find this useful! Let me know if you have ideas to make it even better!

@nick @nickhoang This is neat. I like it. Are you planning to offer custom domains or CNAME? or something like self hosting to run personal blogs.

@nick @wilsonbright We might offer custom domain for a monthly charge. Still considering though...

What's the use case in here? Is it supposed to be a community/social networking site like Medium? Or simply a publishing platform?

@doomhammer It's meant to be a Medium alternative. We'll build out community/social features soon! ;)

@doomhammer @nickhoang So there's no way of finding other users on the site right now?
