Rick Rubin article<\/a>. All articles should take this form.<\/p>\n

A decade writing things down on the internet later, our tools still suck balls. Hard. Anil Dash has a wishlist<\/a> that doesn\u2019t quite do it for me. What I would love: <\/p>\n

– Distraction free environment like this<\/a>, only you publish directly on the web.<\/p>\n

– Formatting should happen in different ways, markdown if you want or standard word processor shortcuts or html if you\u2019re crazy. Choice.<\/p>\n

– Inserting pictures. It really helps reading an article and inserting pictures is a massive pain in the ass right now. It should be as simple as drag and drop with a system that automatically uploads to a chosen destination the picture and links to the original, all in one click. That would be the shit, if I may.<\/p>\n

– Rendering. Well, that would be swell if again it was super easy to change\/add simple but crucial things like fonts or background. We should be able to have magazine quality blogs (like Quartz<\/a> or Medium) in just a couple of clicks, taps or shortcuts whatever floats your boat. More than easy to read whatever device we use, nice looking and peaceful.<\/p>\n

I guess WordPress kind of does all of that (except for the first one) but I don\u2019t want to use anything in a browser. I dedicate the browser to consuming, not creating when native apps are ten times better in usage.<\/p>\n

Web publishing has barely changed in ten years, time to kick the shit out of it with one-click mechanisms, privacy and awesome user experiences.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
