I really like text. How do I not spam this social media with all of my typings?

X and Threads are filled with spam. Protocol based social media Bluesky, Mastodon, Nostr are all gimmicky at best. Subreply is the only sane social network that doesn't waste your time.

I went through all the categories of this social media looking for the text input to post something, just to find out it was right in front of me

Would you have to be a good employee, as well as talented?
👨🏻💻 Moroni
I'm thinking that you can have talent but if you don't have emotional intelligence, strong social skills, among other factors, you won't succeed.

They can do more, but they won't do as *little* as you can do. I like that you've kept it simple.

I spent six months on other social networks and I got bored. Subreply is a lot more interesting to me even if there aren't that many people here.

You're welcome. I couldn't send the email to everyone, just the latest active users.

I think I will shut down Sub this time. New social networks can do more than I can do.

I stopped working on socii.network because I came to the same conclusion. Mastodon has scratched that social media itch for me, even though the features I'd add would be more exciting.

Just read a heading on hackernews: "making social "social" again". This site here is what makes social media "social", instead of corporate, again. (But media is technically just text, so not media, but social text, at its best, I guess.)
🏒 Lucian Marin
Yes! How many times I need to explain it? Subreply is HN version of a social network.

social media, as in where you go to consume content and read people's comments and have conversations? Yes. Social network, as in where you go to hang out with friends? Nope!
