Developer News is not a social media publishing platform.
There are already a ton of great open publishing platforms out there. Shout-out to:
- Coderwall
- Dev.to
- Hashnode
Anyone can create an account on these social media platforms and start publishing within seconds.
They have fun feedback mechanisms. Hearting. Clapping. Unicorns.
And hundreds of people publish articles on these platforms every day.
Developer News doesn’t have any of that.
Instead, we just focus on being useful to readers.
From Quincy’s article Developer News: When you optimize for readers, everyone wins
