What We Value

The principles that guide how we build Pythoughts.

Writer-First

Every feature is designed to help writers focus on their craft. Distraction-free editing, keyboard shortcuts, and autosave.

Privacy-Focused

Your data belongs to you. Private bookmarks, optional analytics, and no third-party tracking.

Quality Over Engagement

No algorithmic feeds designed for outrage. Chronological, topic-based, and follower-based feeds you control.

Open Architecture

Self-hostable with Docker. Standard database, caching, and storage. No vendor lock-in.
