registration is invite only at the moment, so please review the community guidelines then let me know if you'd like to join; i'll send you an invite link.

howdoyouspell.cool is an open community of writers who value privacy, autonomy, and creative writing – and, most importantly, we reject corporate interests and monetary incentives. We aim to be a no-pressure, polite community of writers from all walks of life, away from the ten-thousand-word user agreements of corporate-controlled platforms. If you consider yourself even the most amateur of writers, you’re welcome here. Too often, writers leave their work languishing in a folder somewhere – this community aims to change that by providing a safe space for expression without fear of ridicule or some big-word conglomerate stealing your words to power a fake-sentient SQL table.

What's a good reason to sign up for yet another indie writing platform? My time is limited, and there are plenty of alternatives.

for you, none; why would you sign up for more than one to begin with? this is for anyone who hasn't signed up for multiple yet-another-indie-writing platforms and is looking for a federated write freely instance to join (considering write.as is closed for registration).

If it's got a good new feature, audience, promise of service, or something to distinguish it from shouting into the void.

That’s like saying a Lemmy instance needs new features to distinguish it.

[–] Impronoucabl 2 points 3 months ago

Well, yes.

It doesn't have to be a technical feature though.

Write freely is a federated platform
