Hey all, Thor from Readup here! I started reading on Readup in Dec. 2019, when it was still just a browser extension and tiny web app. Readup gradually opened a new world for me: the variety and quality of articles I found made me read much more, and more deeply.

Readup hit all the right chords. The read-before-you-comment and ranking algorithm was a great response to my frustration with incumbent social media, and Readup could feed my curiosity like no other venue. Over the course of 2020 I got to know Bill & Jeff better, and in June this year I took a serious leap quitting my job to join the team. I blogged about all that in more detail here https://blog.readup.com/2021/09/08/why-I-joined-readup.html. Glad to answer any questions!
