Frequently Asked Questions
100%. We may introduce optional paid features in the future, but we will never compromise on our principles.
Yes, and that is the whole point. Any post can be downloaded as a Markdown file and kept on your machine forever. Even if an author leaves or the platform disappears, the knowledge you collected survives.
No. The editor handles formatting for you with a visual toolbar: bold, italic, headings, lists, images, links. But we encourage you to learn Markdown: it’s simple, universal, and future-proof.
Medium owns your distribution. Substack lets you own your mailing list, but treats writing like disposable, temporary newsletters. Risorgi treats text as compounding knowledge. You own your audience, your writing is saved in future-proof plain text, and your readers can link ideas together to build a lasting library.
Your personal knowledge space. Save posts that resonate with you, link them together, and build a visual map of connected ideas, like a personal wiki of everything you’ve found worth keeping.
We plan to support imports in the future. If your content is already in Markdown, it will be straightforward to bring it to Risorgi.
