about
this is a tiny blog / newsletter made by matt baer, and shared only on instagram. as the name suggests, it’s about something, just not photos, maybe. it'll probably be a lot of little things i write.
okay, there will probably be photos too.
why
this was inspired by friends all making substacks recently, which i love. you should read and subscribe to them all.
otherwise, i wanted my own place in cyberspace to write and share — one that isn’t instagram, with its ads and algorithms. this will live alongside it, in relative peace, with better typography and less bad cropping. it’s made just for the people i know in real life.
how
i'm using software i made, called write.as, to write and publish this. it's a website that anyone can use, built in the spirit of the early 2000's internet, but updated for the modern age. it's a lot like substack, if substack was made by one dude.
of course, i'd be a piss-poor entrepreneur if i didn't mention that you, too, can make a site just like this one by signing up for write.as here. that's a free link to get started, and if you want all the bells and whistles for free, just let me know and i'll hook you up.
subscribe
if you like emails, you can enter your address here to get new posts in your inbox. you can reply to them too, if you like, and we can talk some more :)
did you know? if you use substack, you can add this site to your reader by copying and pasting in this rss feed url: https://not.photos/feed/ — see these instructions for more.
thanks for reading
