Re: Ask HN: Where to publish a critical work with potentially offensive content
#12This is not meant to be a 'cute' humorous response, but a serious one: trying to think of places that likely have next to no algorithmic banning, I wonder if Pastebin is a solution. Perhaps I think of this because my earliest Internet experiences were with days of BBSs, with directories of text files and newsgroup postings.
pastebin, BBSs, or even just uploading a file to a filehost like S3 would all work. but that doesn't put the content in front of anybody's eyes like the publishing platforms do. if you just upload a file somewhere, nobody is going to see it. and i assume that having other people read it is the point.

#13DigitalOcean has a "1 click" setup for WordPress (and probably other blogging software). It's not actually 1 click, but it is super easy. The most tedious part was buying and configuring a domain, which has to be done away from DigitalOcean.

Maybe - but Substack is pretty big, do they algorithmically ban? I didn't find anything saying specifically that they didn't. I guess it's not too big of a problem if I get banned and it's the only content I have there, but I would have wasted time.

#19(Or you could self-host an .onion, but this approach has someone else do all the fiddly technical bits for you.)
