About Skribl

Skribl is a small social network for short posts. You follow people, share what's on your mind, reply in threads, repost, and add images, GIFs or polls. If you've used Twitter or Bluesky, it'll feel familiar.

The thing that's different: you can edit a post after you publish it.

Editing posts

Twitter makes you pay to edit, and Bluesky doesn't let you at all. On Skribl it's free and built in. You get a few minutes after posting to fix a typo or reword something, as long as no one has liked, replied to, or reposted it yet. Once a post has an audience it locks, so an edit can't change what people already reacted to. If you'd rather start fresh, you can always delete a post and write a new one.

How your feeds work

We try to be straight about how posts reach you. Following shows the people you follow, newest first. Explore has two tabs: Latest (everything, newest first) and Trending (the most-liked and most-discussed posts from the last couple of days, the same list for everyone). For You is the one ranked feed, and the recipe is short: how recent a post is, whether it's from someone in your network, and how much people are engaging with it. No ads, and the ranking isn't a secret. You can switch to Following for a plain timeline whenever you like. The Help page has the full breakdown.

Who can see your posts

You need a Skribl account to read anyone's posts, so nothing here is open to the general public or search engines. From there, the usual controls are easy to find. A public account is visible to any signed-in member. Make your account private and only approved followers see your posts. You can also choose who can message you, block or mute anyone, and mute words you'd rather not run into. When you report a post or account, a real person reviews it.

Invite-only for now

Skribl is in a small beta, so you need an invite to join. If you don't have one, request an invite from the home page and we'll email you when a spot opens up.
