Why should I use Prose Postin' instead of Facebook or Twitter?
Twitter and Facebook accumulate an extensive amount of personal data about you, even if you never log into their platforms. These social media giants actively collect and compile a vast array of personal information, regardless of your login status. These companies rely on intricate tracking mechanisms to monitor your online activities thoroughly. By constantly observing your behavior, they accumulate a comprehensive profile of your preferences and tendencies. Ultimately, their objective is to optimize their advertising platform, as the more effectively they can track and understand you, the more valuable their advertising ecosystem becomes.
Will Prose Postin' monitor my activities?
Prose Postin' aspires to emulate the privacy-centric practices established by companies like DuckDuckGo. We are presently in the process of constructing a company framework and formulating policies that prioritize safeguarding user privacy. Our aim is to provide a service that respects your privacy rights and minimizes user tracking. While we may collect certain non-personally identifiable information for operational purposes, such as website analytics and system optimization, our tracking practices do not intrude upon your privacy.
Can I transfer my Twitter history to Prose Postin'?
Yes. You have the option to seamlessly import your complete Twitter history into Prose Postin' to continue your social media journey uninterrupted. To accomplish this, you will need to acquire an archive of your Twitter data from your account settings. Twitter offers a feature that allows you to request your data archive, which encompasses all your tweets, direct messages, followers, and more. Once you possess the archive file, typically in a compressed .zip format, you can securely upload and import it to the designated Twitter Archive Import page on the Prose Postin' website. By doing so, you can retain your valuable content and interactions within the Prose Postin' platform.
Will Prose Postin' incorporate image uploading for posts?
While Prose Postin' acknowledges the significance of visual content, our development team is actively working on implementing the feature to support seamless image uploading for posts. We are committed to providing a comprehensive and enriched posting experience that empowers you to effortlessly share images. Although we do not have a specific timeline for the availability of this feature, rest assured that it is a crucial aspect of our development roadmap. We appreciate your patience as we continue to enhance Prose Postin' with new capabilities.
Am I required to use my real name?
No. Prose Postin' places a high value on your privacy and acknowledges your desire to establish an online persona that remains anonymous. We understand the significance of maintaining your privacy and enable you to exercise your creativity by choosing a username or display name that aligns with your preferences. Your email and other information provided under your "Account" settings will be kept confidential, ensuring the utmost privacy and protection of your personal details.
Does Prose Postin' support direct messaging (DM)?
No.
When I delete a post, is it completely removed?
When you delete a post, the content of your post is promptly removed from our database. As a result, there will be no trace of the specific content within the post. However, it's worth noting that our system may retain a record indicating that you posted something, primarily for the purpose of maintaining the integrity and security of our platform. This record does not contain the specific content of your deleted post but serves as an internal log entry. Rest assured that we do not retain or utilize the content of your deleted posts beyond this log entry.
Is there a dedicated Prose Postin' mobile app available?
Currently, there is no dedicated Prose Postin' mobile application available for Android or iOS devices. However, we have ambitious plans underway to develop a feature-rich mobile app that will offer a seamless and optimized experience on your smartphones. Our dedicated team is actively working towards launching the Prose Postin' app, and we anticipate its release in 2023. This app will grant you convenient access to all the functionalities and features of Prose Postin', enabling you to stay connected and engaged while on the move. In the interim, you can add a Prose Postin' button to your phone's home screen as a temporary solution. Simply open your phone's web browser, navigate to https://prose.post.in, and utilize the browser's sharing capabilities (e.g., the box with an arrow on iOS or three dots on Android) to locate and select the "Add to Home Screen" option. This will create a shortcut on your home screen, providing quick and effortless access to Prose Postin' with a single tap.
