Wired published an article about txt.fyi, the minimalist publishing “platform” I made: “Write something, hit Publish, and voilà: your deathless prose, online. ”
But here’s the thing: txt.fyi has no social mechanics. None. No Like button, no Share button, no comments. No feed showing which posts are most popular. Each post has a tag telling search engines not to index it, so it won’t even show up on Google. The only way anyone will see it is if you send them the URL or post it somewhere. … So, does antivirality actually affect what people do and say?
