another post about noterook.net
have you been burned by tumblr clone after tumblr clone telling you that they are going to be up forever and be a social media platform you can use for good but then dying either due to sucking or running out of money? well i have some great news.
Your notebook, your posts. A social platform where your content lives on your device.
noterook dot net (https://noterook.net) is a privacy first social media platform that is air quotes like tumblr, but what if we removed the parts that were bad, and added parts that were good? here is what we have
global pvp via an @ everyone feed - some websites would call this a "firehose" - that exposes everyone's posts to everyone else (outside of private posts, of course)
a personal reverse-chrono latest-post-first feed.
privacy features allowing you to cleanly restrict who you want able to see and respond and interact with your posts
blocks and mutes that function basically as you would expect them to instead of having dozens of weird stupid edge cases
you are allowed to post pornography on noterook dot net
noterook costs me like sixty bucks a month right now to keep up and our devops bottleneck is mostly in traffic not on computer stuff or storage so. believe me when i say this; it is not going to get that much more expensive for me. it scales linearly.
active development of features you want and no development of features you don't want.
here's what we don't have
likes (instead, you can put physical stickers on other people's posts)
your data stored anywhere on our database (we use magic programming to ensure that none of your data is stored in a permanent form on our servers).
ads * (user self-service ads will come, we have no intent of signing onto a big ad network nor would we probably be allowed to.)
the ability to feed your posts en masse to any sort of ai algorithm (see above about data storage)
image hosting (see: server costs). but you can still embed images!
noterook: it's a website that's like tumblr, but different in good ways.
