thoughts.page
thoughts.page is a website for people to post their thoughts. It's basically like twitter, but no one can @ you or follow you — it's trying to contribute to making a quieter, more cozy internet.

I made this a few months ago after realizing that twitter was melting my brain, and a handful of people have stumbled across it so far and made some pretty cute pages. There's a "webring"/list of pages — some of my favorites are:

flashmob
one of my partners <3
manifeasto
my head is on fire
octopodeshearts
my own thoughts

I hope people enjoy! I really want microblogging to come back in a non-social media way :)

Role: everything but the idea

Good luck! It would be nice if microblogging was fun again.

Site needs more defensive programming; see hacker.thoughts.page. (I didn't do it!)

This is wonderful, thanks for sharing! I, like many people, find the modern internet so distracting. Obtrusive ads, auto playing video, click-bait article titles ... The text-centric style of your platform is so refreshing!
