Another "minor" milestone

A year ago I posted my first official post in my freshly launched Writestreak.team platform. After writing for years just by myself on my own platform I wanted to create something for other like-minded people who also want to write daily.

Today there are only three of us writing here, me, @therealbrandonwilson and @Peter Dannock . Those two have been here also from the beginning, keeping up their streaks (despite the occasional bugs that try to cut them short). Well, they are a few days behind because I unfairly took a head start before officially launching the site.

I never planned to make this anything big. I have not marketed the site anywhere. Maybe I could get one or two new members by trying. But I'm not sure if it's worth the effort.

What I did have was a lot of plans for all kinds of fancy features. I gave up on almost all of them rather quickly. Instead I decided to focus on simplicity. The site has only one purpose: enabling daily writing. And I think it pretty much have everything needed for that.

Maybe after this first year I would also be ready to let go my old platform and stop posting all my daily posts in two places.
