Why You Should Start A Blog The independent blog has been in decline for years. It doesn’t have to be that way. Here’s why you should start a blog in 2019—and host it yourself.

Hey what are you doing right now? Nothing? Great. Perfect time to start a blog.

Seven years old, most of the advice still fits great:

Snap.as space/storage Hi @egoecho! There’s no image size limit – images are automatically resized to a maximum width of 1280 pixels right now, and we’ll support keeping the full uploaded resolution in the future. And there...

All good! We don't actually have a hard limit on storage space right now, though that might change in the future. But here's a full answer on that: discuss.write.as/t/snap-as-sp...

The AI era will reward character more than credentials.

I wrote about why resilience, conscientiousness & adaptability matter more than ever — and how a friend is teaching his kids that by having them run his bookstore.

More people should know that write.as exists.

Lately I’ve been hearing from smart, capable friends who are quietly struggling — with layoffs, stalled careers, and rising pressure.

There’s more hardship out there than we think. I wrote about it here:

Ultimately, we face too much daily spam from non-paid users that make it hard for our small team (me, @baer.works) to do much of anything besides fight them off. So temporarily closing Free accounts is the easiest way to slow the tide a bit. I'm sure we'll open up Free accounts again in the future.
