I’ve been writing reviews since my Reddit days, and I posted a couple here on Lemmy (primarily Mecha anime). However, since I can’t post for reddit for reasons I don’t want to into detail for and since Lemmy is too small, I’m thinking about just making my own website to post reviews on. So should I go for it? What should I know before doing it?
Yes.
Just use an existing platform of some kind, spend your time reviewing rather than building a site to post them on.
I’d say use something like neocities.org. It’s free and easy to use and you can still completely control what it will look like.
