#WriteFreely v0.12 is just about ready! This upcoming version includes #ActivityPub mentions, OAuth support, and plenty of small improvements.

For anyone interested in helping us test out this new version, we've just put out a release candidate for you to try today, and would love your feedback!

On a long train ride, from DC to San Antonio. Apparently I'm in the mood to code for fun this week, because I just added Gopher support in #WriteFreely: https://writefreely.org/pull/273

Got our #WriteFreely postcards in the mail today 😍 Will give these out at #FOSDEM next weekend. And stickers!

Added a new tool for reading Medium articles in peace:

You can also grab the article as Markdown -- maybe even publish to #WriteFreely!

In Prague this week for #ActivityPubConf! Looking forward to talking about #WriteFreely and other #ActivityPub projects the @write_as team is working on.

Hmm, wonder what's going on with these sites... #WriteFreely instances with different branding and a suspiciously large number of users / posts 🤔

One is a Posthaven knockoff called Postheaven: https://postheaven.net

Zen Writing: https://zenwriting.net (nodeinfo: https://zenwriting.net/api/nodeinfo)
