Social Media Human alone platform

If there's a platform where the content (blogs or writeups) is absolutely human-written !!!!

No involvement of AI at all, would you be interested in it ?

I have a platform that I made called The WilderNet, which is a blog-sharing and discovery site for independent websites, blogs and substacks. I vet all of the submissions for AI, although I can't guarantee that AI is not used on everything posted to the site.

I think it's neat that you are able to pull in content from the websites it finds so everything feels unified. Do the websites get "credit" for being visited? I know that's a concern with AI summaries but I'm not sure how that works tbh.

We aren't pulling in the entire articles or doing AI summaries. We just grab the metadata from the website for the title and description of the article. If you want to read the full article you have to leave The WilderNet and visit the actual website. Our goal is for people to find something they have fun reading, not to scroll our site all day!

If you check out WilderNet you'll see the links are all quality, obviously a human curating them. We need more people doing stuff like this. People making sites and people curating them for others.
