hey everyone! awesome to see wasteof finally back. some of you may already know, but the wasted onion now has its own website where you can read every article i’ve written, every magazine, newspaper, etc. find it here: https://wastedonion.seanjw.com/

something i want to ask you guys now is how you want me to post new articles i’ve written (aka the “by the wasted onion“ ones)? would you prefer that i just provide a short snippet of the article and link to the full thing on the website? this’ll allow for posts to be shorter and not take up as much of your feed as you scroll. or would you prefer that i go back to posting the full article onto wasteof like i did before?

i do put effort into writing every article i post to the wasted onion. i know the headline is still the most important bit, but i do make sure the articles themselves are funny (at least i think they’re funny lol) and i do appreciate those who take time to read them. an fyi that the website has no ads and i haven’t added any trackers either, so don’t worry about that.

would love to hear your thoughts. i hope you still find the wasted onion a funny and valuable part of wasteof now that we’re back.

here is an example post below so you can see what the “snippet“ format looks like.

I like this format. Maybe it’s just me, but I kind of wish the font on the website for the articles were slightly larger… maybe just with more spacing between lines?

just did an update that makes the text bigger when on desktop, lmk what you think, i also made the line height slightly larger too. thanks for the feedback!

much better, thanks
