I built my own S/MMS microblogging site and decided to write up a little about it: https://ai6ua.net/blog/2019/05/10/hello-nomad/
@d71107 Yes! When my friend who also uses the site (and is helping me build it) posts, I'm more likely to reach out via Signal to reply. It's a more meaningful interaction than what I have elsewhere, usually.
@ai6ua cool! and I’ve felt this need too. A desire for meaningful interactions with people who want to invest in me and are my friend. Not pushing for the never ending charade of followers++
