Pillowfort.io: "A better social media platform"
Kickstarter:
Pillowfort.io is a new blogging platform that aims to improve the current state of social media by providing better privacy and communication tools. We saw people on today's major social media networks complaining about the limitations and flaws of these sites, yet lamenting that there was nowhere better to go. We aim to be that better place to go: a user-friendly space on the web for creativity, communication and content-sharing. We’re creating Pillowfort.io because we are avid bloggers ourselves, and have long dreamed of a platform that would bring together all the best features of the various platforms we’ve used over the years, allowing each user to customize their own experience.
Pillowfort is currently in closed beta with over 10,000 users. Everyone who donates $5 or more will get a registration key (or keys) on September 1st to create an account on the site, so if you want to try out the site while it's still in beta and even help us decide on how to continue developing it, now is your chance!

I supported this and got in on the last beta opening. But I haven't really done anything with it yet.

ReplyDeleteWhich looks promising, but won't see a product until Spring, as I recall.

One of my friends finds PillowFort to be similar to Tumblr in feel, but with significant improvements. But since I don't Tumblr, my grasp of what makes either platform desirable is shaky at best.
ReplyDeleteThis is probably where I'll go once it's out of beta or I can spare the dollars.
ReplyDeleteSallie Alys Montuori I agree with your friend, it's similar to Tumblr. But unlike Tumblr, original and tl;dr content is more encouraged and flurishes better.
ReplyDeleteEdward Morbius if I get some time, I'll look into posting about the two or something. Right now my time is strapped between three projects: moderating Pluspora, writing horror novella for Halloween (which may be late), and pre-production for a short film. Argh!!!
