Posts, a community app by Read.cv

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.

To be transparent, the reason for this decision is anticlimatic — ultimately the challenges of sustaining a small business were more than we could overcome.

As for what’s next, our team will be joining the product and engineering team at Perplexity. Both of our teams share a passion for building tools that encourage exploration and curiosity, and we’re excited to show you what we build together.

Reflecting on the last 4 years, it has been an incredible privilege to take a swing at building this product and community, and I want to sincerely thank you all for your support.

Oh I thought the community was shutting down, we're only moving to Perplexity 😄. I'm already there.

Turns out I'm wrong and it's really ending. The Read.cv team is joining Perplexity but the community is at a crossroads. We should build a new one or join somewhere that looks promising and suits our vibe. Threads/X/Mastodon/Bluesky? Onwards from here.

Have loved watching you grow this platform... it would be, wow, so amazing if you contributed the underlying source code to the open source ecosystem. Regardless, epic run — and super bullish on your next steps at Perplexity!

I just bought the Smithographic.cv domain yesterday, so will there be a refund if the functionality at of the domain will cease to exist?
