Unhinged idea: post to myself I built neverpost. It’s a private, on-device microjournal. It gives you the fast, frictionless feeling of a Bluesky timeline—but with 100% privacy. Your thoughts and media never touch a server. Here is why I built it: 👇 (1/4)

It works on desktop, but mobile is way more fun. neverpost is a Progressive Web App (PWA). Follow the 3-step guide inside to "Add to Home Screen" and the browser wrapper disappears. It looks, feels, and scrolls exactly like a native app. 📱✨ (3/4)

Elon’s Twitter reminds me of the H.G. Wells story, “The Pearl of Love.” A prince wants to honor his wife with a gorgeous mausoleum and adds more and more crap until he decides the only way to make the mausoleum truly beautiful is to throw out his wife’s coffin and body.

In all seriousness Bluesky has taught me I actually want two things in a social media app: it barely works so I can’t use it all the time, and I can scroll to the end and feel done with it. Reliability and bottomless content are features everyone was dying to implement and actually both are curses

My favorite thing about joining a new social network is following like 100 random people that seem cool and then reading all their posts for the next decade

wait, no gifs on bluesky means NO laughing reaction gifs of the mom from that 70s show, OR the jennifer lawrence-looking lady spitting water, OR the goodfellas one incels love. maybe this is a feature, not a bug
