i’m looking for a place/means/medium for texts that i write. content is essays on topics that i find worthy writing about with hints towars philosophy (i guess).
twenty years ago the right answer to my question would have been a (we-)blog - what’s the current day equivalent for such a venture?
optimally, a solution would neither be based on lock-ins, data collection/aggregation or other shady business and would be freely (e.g. in a web browser, no login/registration required) and easily accessible.
Still a blog. Host your own Wordpress or Ghost blog. Substack and others are evil.
What’s evil about substack?
They defend platforming nazis in the name of free speech or something.
but how do i gain reach? should i just advertise on lemmy/fediverse and hope to get traction?
with good posts?
for sure. but content usually does not advertise itself, so…?
I think people don’t normally mind if you post your own blogposts on a platform like Lemmy as long as you don’t spam it and the content is actually relevant
