Roadmap: The Future of Decent Newsroom

We are building a decentralized, high-value journalism platform step by step. Each phase unlocks new features, empowering writers, publishers, and readers to engage with quality, independent reporting in a whole new way.

v0.1.0 – Preprint Current

A first glimpse into the future of journalism

This early version of Decent Newsroom is all about discovery. We’re launching a sample magazine to showcase what’s possible.

Hand-curated, high-quality articles in magazine format
Full-text search to find the stories that matter to you
No content editor or user submissions yet

Preprint is just the beginning.

v0.2.0 – First Edition Soon

The real newsroom takes shape. Writers publish. Readers support. Journalism thrives.

This milestone version introduces key features that bring Decent Newsroom to life:

Zaps
Content submissions
Subscriptions for premium access
Built-in content editor so publishers can create directly on the platform

With First Edition, journalism becomes more than just content, it becomes an ecosystem.

v0.3.0 – Newsstand

Curate. Publish. Own your newsroom.

At this stage, Decent Newsroom evolves into a true platform for independent journalism. Not only can creators publish, but they can also curate their own magazines.

Users can create and manage their own curated publications
Collaborative publishing tools – editors, writers, and photographers can work together
Expanded discovery and personalized reading experiences

Your news, your way. Newsstand transforms First Edition into a powerful hub for decentralized journalism, driven by the community.

The Journey Ahead

Every step we take brings us closer to a new era of independent, decentralized journalism. Decent Newsroom isn’t just another publishing platform — it’s a movement to rebuild trust, quality, and collaboration in media.

First Edition is coming soon. Be part of it.
