Show Hn: Jottings; Anti-social Microblog For Your Thoughts 2025
No algorithm. No likes or replies to chase. No dopamine traps. Just your words, on your own domain, in chronological order. The way the internet was supposed to work.
Twitter became a dumpster fire. Instagram became a shopping mall. TikTok became a slot machine. Even the "alternatives" are just the same game with different rules.
They want you to engage. To scroll. To stay. To create and become content for the algorithm.
No algorithm—ever. Your posts appear in chronological order because that's the only order that makes sense.
No likes, no followers, no replies to chase. Your worth isn't measured in hearts.
No ads, no tracking, no manipulation. Your attention isn't for sale.
For product updates. For travel notes. For thoughts on life. For whatever you want.
