Nope. Just nope. If you don't own the list of subscribers, you haven't really built an audience. This is just you doing free marketing for Medium, and locking yourself and your fans into their ecosystem. Big, unequivocal nope.

Looks amazing! I'd buy the crap out of this if there was an iOS version.

Loved it in the early Brandquiz days when it was mostly a quiz/calculator, and I love it even more now. The possibilities are endless!
Pros: Beautiful designs, intuitive builder, and insane amounts of flexibility.
Cons: None that I can think of.

Cons: Can't set custom storage folder, so...

Pros: Nothing.

Pros: Finally an app like this for Mac! Plus it's wonderful set of journaling/emotion tracking tools, with great...

Version 2 added two of my biggest feature requests - custom keyboard shortcuts, and the ability to preview entire documents before exporting. Makes me super happy!
Pros: Has dramatically sped up my writing process
Cons: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
