Re: Show HN: A Handwritten Blogging Platform
#22Who is this for though? As a writer, a lot of times I am writing over 5,000 words in a single article. I can type at around 170 wpm but my wrist starts hurting the moment I write more than three pages in my journal. I also use a split ergonomic keyboard which helps my hands a lot. I also revise my writing heavily which is very hard to do with handwritten stuff. For readers, it will maybe be a novelty but I don't real…
For myself, it's really about slowing down my thinking. It's definitely not meant for _efficient_ writing :)

#23Fantastic idea! I think the hardest part for people to adopt this will be overcoming atrophied handwriting skills and no autocorrect.
One thing that doesn't seem clear to me from reading without signing up is how do you actually upload content? Do you have to have paper and pen and then take a picture of it, or do you provide some kind of excalidraw-like canvas for writing? I notice there isn't any paper background or line rules, which I think would also be nice for those who fancy a bit of structure when reading/writing.

#24How about a blog that contains its entire source code inline in the blog itself? [0] [0] - https://mjwg6zy.blog/ Such that copy pasting its contents reconstructs the blog byte for byte
This is cool - I love quines!

#25Reminds me of E. W. Dijkstra's digitized hand-written manuscripts: https://www.cs.utexas.edu/~EWD/index13xx.html
Indeed!

#26i really like this. my issue is usually i read while selecting so my eyes follow which unfortunately the website won't support
Yeah I can imagine that's tricky to do in this case. Maybe I can think of something.

This is actually not on handwritten.blog, but on the site of the person where I got the original idea from! Maybe I can incorporate something like this on handwritten.blog too (e.g. a way for people to send in comments via email).

Thanks! This is good feedback.
Yes, you can upload a photo through the backend, or just email it to a publish email address.
Good idea about the line rules and paper background - this could land as "theming" in the future.

#30Well I hoped it was some kind of SVG with alt text for copy. Turns out it's just a webp.
Intersting idea!
