Any tips for hosting a blog? i recently read this speech by deng about the pen being a major tool for exercising leadership and i want to start writing my thoughts to practice and get better.

      Interesting project. I would have suggested that @bennieandthez@lemmygrad.ml join your mastodon instance since you get 2000 characters per "toot" (weird choice of word tbh), which is not bad at all for shorter writings and you can arrange them into a thread.

      The problem with having a blog or any platform is getting people to read you, social media is a powerful tool to get eyes on your content.

      Substack is also becoming very popular, I think because you manage your blog space however you like.

      And on ProleWiki we're looking at opening a sort of blog space too for our editors to replace the legacy essays page (which is just a page with a table in it). But you'll need an editor account and we have no release date at all, we're still playing around with the idea.
