We've improved our Leaflet onboarding!!! Now when you log in for the first time, you'll be greeted by this lil guy and find more guidance overall on how to start a publication and write your first post!!

a lil guy pops out of a bend in a hilly path. There is a speech bubble above him that says "Welcome to Leaflet!"

Help fund our lil indie operation! Larger legacy communities on Discord can now pay $30/month to unlock live bridging at scale for the purpose of either safe-keeping or incrementally transitioning their community to Roomy and the atmosphere. should we add a $5/month good-vibes-only supporter plan?

ha I feel this with @leaflet.pub as well! quick to get a fun doc editor / blog app; *big* lift to get close to google docs / substack parity …but on the flip side now we *are* close, for docs *and* blogging…which feels great! big shout out to @roomy.space for making so much progress here 🙌

Reflecting a bit on our @leaflet.pub ~atmosphere field reporter~ experiment so far… TL;DR, mixed results — some great publications, but *not* a lot of generating convo / activity across scenes My main q rn: how can we better help with this part?

I made a little social bibliography atproto app. You can post papers you read and see what your friends are reading. Paper info autofills from links, and it exports to bibtex. There's chronological and following only feeds, maybe more to come, and you can organize papers into lists for your own use.

interesting q! I like a kind of combo approach - tiers, but most content free + e.g. periodic subscriber drives - occasional exclusives for superfans (behind the scenes, tangential deep dives etc) - options for one-off support (*not* micropayments but like "buy this zine" or "support this project")

it's not lost on me how critical it is to be building community-driven social technology in this time, because there's a lot we need - more joy, more connection, more education, more agency, and more privacy. breaking out of the box of "social media" - what are the tools we need in these times?

I'm at the park watching my son scoot. He's scooting on his scooter. He's scooting all around. He's having so much fun scooting. He's zooming by. He's looking at me and smiling. He's scooting more. I'm running next to him. I'm on the turf and he's on the pavement. He scoots and I run. We're zooming!

we're working on the v2 of our standard.site link cards. these cards currently link to both the article (top part) and publication (bottom part). they show a "Subscribe" button when possible, otherwise a "View Publication" button. what changes would you all like to see in the next version?

terrible irony if this gets more likes than my OP

Mockup of a tshirt that says "Ekphrasis is Praxis" in boot boys biz style, via Gemini / nano banana. Split panel, full shirt on the left and just the graphic on the right closer up. It's a very silly low rent knockoff but kinda on point; it does include references to Homer, Keats, Marx, Freire, and Aristotle and there's also a QR code at the bottom. Anyway this took several tries lmao.

Added a compact display mode for subpages! Great for for wikis, guides, anything with lots of nested content! The editor will remember the last setting too, so easy to have it as your default if you want.

Before and after of Leaflet subpage links: on the left, full cards with a title, preview text, and a page thumbnail; on the right, the same links as compact single-line rows with only the title and a chevron.
