My writings on Wikis

I contribute to the following wikis:


Social media

I post on the following platforms:


How I decide where to post

When my writings fit on wikis, I prioritize putting them there.

When my writings don't fit on wikis, I prioritize putting on community blogs. I contribute to the following community blogs:

I would like LessDead to also become a community blog, but so far only me posted on it. The RadicalxChange Forum might also serve as a community blog.

When none of those platforms is a good fit, then I post on my website, matiroy.com.

I also try to take a lot of my personal notes publicly on Coda, but I haven't been doing that reliably at all. Those notes are generally unfinished and unpolished. They can also be uninteresting. The reason I put them public is often not because I think you should read them.

I also post on social media, especially Facebook, Quora, and Twitter.
