I'm sad that Twitter is gone. I'm sad that Instagram doesn't care about photography anymore. It sucks to start your social graph over.

But if you're gonna do this again you might as well future-proof it.

Start your own website. Run your own blog. Use decentralized and open-sourced platforms

@ghost.org is a great open-sourced blogging platform and website builder
Pixelfed is doing great work for images and runs on the social web

Support open social projects so your homes on the web don't fall apart
