This form is to get added to a dedicated feed of post-posts.cv peeps. The only way to get added to this feed as a poster is this form or DMing me on Bluesky. Anyone can follow the feed.

How to host your Read.cv export using GitHub and Vercel

Update on @charlsy 's Posts/Read.cv memorial sticker, they've arrived from the printers, and are looking sweeeeet! 👌❤️‍🔥 I'm going to send them out in two batches (one this month, one next) to spread the shipping costs, but first batch heading out soon!

Building :) Waitlist is open! https://tally.so/r/wdKe8K

One of the things that gets overlooked is just how great the Read newsletter was, a mix of great content and updates from the community itself. Hopefully @pedropeguerojr and I will be able to capture a fraction of that magic.

As Posts winds down I'd like to confess that I am the NSA agent assigned to this website. It's been a joy to monitor all your interactions and escalate any concerning posts to my superiors but all you guys talked about was kerning and color contrast it really made my job a breeze

I've been working on a Posts-inspired Bluesky client. It only shows @taurean 's Posts feeds, so it should feel like home for those migrating from there 💛 Sharing early progress as I build it, and going to open source it soon!   posts-sky.vercel.app

*through loud sobbing* I'd like to add you to my professional network on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/taureanbryant/

Updated my portfolio site. adameastburn.net 

I have open availability for creative stuff like:
- short animations, explainers, ads
- gifs and logo animations
- illustrations 
- visual branding

There isn't one, I think we have to create it.

Going to miss this place. I made a 3D model of the Posts logo if anyone wants a memento.

I reccomend getting it printed at PCBway or Shapeways

Hey all, I wanted to share a very bittersweet update here before we shared it anywhere else. First, the hard part — we’ve made the difficult decision to wind down Read.cv and Posts starting this month.

Hey since this wonderful website is ending soon, please share where else we can find you:
bsky: https://bsky.app/profile/pketh.org
mstdn: https://c.im/@pirijan
blog: https://pketh.org
the app I build: https://kinopio.club

see you on the flip side

Huge bummer but these things happen. Would it be useful to yall if I made a Bluesky feed comprised of posts people?

With Posts ending, it'd be great to have more ways to connect. Many use Slack daily, so a few of us have set up a space for anyone interested. An experiment on the Free plan :) https://join.slack.com/t/worldwidecreatorsclub/shared_invite/zt-2y4wnzydi-cxLj1Sx1XvF4RAWW0BVWkQ

👋🏽

In order to disconnect.. I took a few hours to build some new shelfs at the office.. now I can display all my curiosa for me to see (only me, since, well, I don't have that many acquaintances here in this tiny Japanese town in the middle of nowhere).

pulled up to vancouver BC for the weekend and had a blast meeting @shen (picture credit!) for the first time at OIDE coffee. 

copped a tote bag and some special time with a friend :-)

If you're new to Bluesky or hesitant to join, here's a getting started guide, just for you Posts people.

The last time I was this emotional, Club Penguin was shutting down.

If there's enough responses here, I'll make a dedicated bluesky feed of people who used to post here, add your bsky username: https://forms.gle/LpGfQ8bLW7ww9oZ56

It's February which means we are officially THREE WEEKS AWAY from the IRL NYC creative meet! Show up for a casual hang and meet some new people.

RSVP deets + don't be afraid to invite a +1 if they fit the vibe: https://partiful.com/e/IOSRbvTZcnGdLgc4GW6M

The NYC creative meet WILL GO ON. Will share RSVP deets early next week! 🫡

It's a huge bummer to see this place shut down but hot take: I'm actually really grateful to the team here for letting us end on a high note. Thanks to @andy, @mehdi, and @shen! 

Some parting thoughts: https://link.taurean.work/bye-posts

read.cv is an amazing place, it’s an example of software done right — by putting people first. really do hope that the same spirit can live on in the lives and work of everyone here :) software can be playful and fun! 🫶

I can't repost anymore but I want to share this from @nadia.

😢
Thanks for the wholesome heartwarming experience, Posts.
First time getting that from any product.

Thank you @andy and team for building an incredible product! I've met so many talented, kind, fun people here—if anyone wants to chat and we've never talked before, please reach out!!

Hey @taurean had a cool idea to let you use your [username].posts.cv as your Bluesky handle so that it's easier to find each other there. We just added a setting on Posts web under account settings.

Here's me https://bsky.app/profile/andy.posts.cv

IF YOU’D LIKE TO CONNECT MORE PLEASE POST YOUR LINKEDIN/BLUESKY/INSTA/X LINKS BELOW 🫶

Just a heads up, if you registered a domain with us the migration to hello.cv has been completed. You can create an account on their site using the same email you used on read.cv and your  domains should all be there. Please contact us at support@read.cv if you see any issues.

@jameslyons is _cooking_ right now. That's a Bluesky feed, meaning you sign in with your Bluesky account, styled to look like Posts.cv and showing content from Posts.cv people. ❤️

finally redid my portfolio site 🥹🥹🥹 hannahlee.ca updated with new and familiar projects, including my illustrations for posts!!

RIP Posts — you were great and gone too soon

My submission for a new community icon for Posts.

I've teamed up with @charlsy's to print these beaut memorial stickers, full credit to him, I'm just coughing up some dough. 

They're actually being printed on metal, so they're gonna look delicious. ✨👌 Only 50 available, totally free, so be quick: https://tally.so/r/mBj7z5

Here is a short video tutorial on how to deploy your exported read cv profile or site using GitHub and Vercel. I’ll probably repost this in the morning for more reach~

could be the footer for your exported cv site

Huge shoutout and thank you to @subhash for these 3D printed Posts icons 🥺✊

I plan on hosting another virtual meetup, I’ll share more details hopefully next week.

I just registered posts.club, where I will be listing ongoing initiatives to keep the community here going beyond posts.cv's shutdown on February 28th.

If there's anything you'd like to see added there, please let me know!
