I write political economic reports as a hobby just a neutral slightly cynical take on things. The challenge is finding a platform that doesn’t collect data while also being active and having users interested in these topics. (Mainstream social media is out of the question. No) Platforms i’ve tried : lemmy, mastodon, substuck, writefreely

    Please remove the Bot Account flag from your account, as you are not a bot.

    I don’t know what service is not going to collect data, when data is necessary to run said service. And unless your reports are behind a hard paywall, they will be scraped by countless web crawlers anyway.

    If you run your own service, you may be able to protect somewhat more of your data than if you pay someone else to run it.

    But you haven’t elaborated on exactly what data you want to protect and from whom. You haven’t described your threat model.

    I’d genuinely suggest self hosting the reports on a site you control (possibly using a CRM that’s self hosted of some sort of hosting service) and then just link it into various places.

    As simple as fuck static content webserver can be run on random extra hardware you have lying around or a budget cloud instance and domain names are cheap.
