Introducing 500 Social

I've decided to go for it and start that deliberately small online community I was talking about. It's called 500 Social.

I wasnโ€™t going to announce it yet, but I imported my follows into the new account and people are starting to notice, so I figured itโ€™s probably a good idea for me to announce it.

500 Social is a new deliberately small online community that is limited to a maximum of 500 members. I must stress that 500 is a maximum, not a target.

After thinking about it long and hard, and speaking to a lot of people about it via email and on the Fedi, I decided to just go for it.

It might fail, it might not. I really hope it wonโ€™t, as it could be a lot of fun.

Hereโ€™s the TL;DR but you can read more here:

Iโ€™m also thinking about creating a lifetime option for a limited time. Somewhere in the region of $100 (~4 years membership) that will give people a lifetime account and a tag on their profile. Still stewing on that one though.

If youโ€™re interested in finding out more, or signing up, hereโ€™s some links:

Donโ€™t forget to follow me over there too, as I will be posting on that account regularly. My account is @kev@500.social.
