The biggest and most immediate Pillowfort takeaway, for me? Is this:
How your content is controlled, affects how it is engaged with.
When you comment on someone else’s page, you feel like you’re in their space–and *this changes how you act*
As a creator, how people interact with my content is a priority and is just one thing that makes Pillowfort stand out to me. I really believe that the way people act can change how communities are built–and even how fandom behaves with creators and other members. If you’re interested in trying out Pillowfort, you can take a look at the Kickstarter here.
Full disclosure: I’m invested in Pillowfort! Not monetarily, other thanbacking the Kickstarter, but I’ve reached out to Julia and helped with design and some planning. I have no idea how they do it all–sorting through beta user feedback and rolling out new dev features. The team is enthusiastic, but small and scrappy and I hope for the best for them!
