Svbtle was apparently "released" as a technical solution, but it quickly became clear to me that Dustin was more interested in the prestige of the invite-only "network" than the platform itself.

I haven't dug into Simvla enough to see if it has some of the interesting backend features—I hope so because otherwise this seems to be an academic exercise (pointing out on simvla.com that "there're many publishing platforms out there; hosted or non-hosted solutions are popping out like snails after a storm").



why do not give it a try? there're many nice features in the backend. btw this what the editor looks like: http://faaa.at/ObJ7

this isn't what we wanted to achieve. we love the idea behind svbtle, but we hate how is it run. so we build our own.


Isn't there already obtvse? What's wrong with that?


It's what makes this project interesting, i see it like an experiment to what would've been svbtle without the elitism aspect
