My thoughts on Ello; I think the platform has a lot of potential that has yet to be realized. It loads slowly (although, I recently upgraded my OS, so it is a little faster for me, now), if they improved the typeface, it would become more appealing for writers; as it is, I don’t find it very appealing visually. You are able to sell your work through Ello. There are invitations to submit your work to competitions. There is an international audience (the largest volume of traffic is from the U.S. and India, although there seems to be quite a few members from Europe, Spain, Australia, Mexico and South America). It isn’t censored (which can be a double-edged sword), but, they have been pretty successful in combatting spam, while maintaining an uncensored platform.
