Today we release a big update to Write.as on our most popular platforms, Chrome 
OS and Android. But that's not all that's happened in the past two months.

Since our March update (https://write.as/j9o0dqohqmpqm), we've taken even 
larger steps towards the final product we hope to launch. One of our goals is 
to fully support anonymity online (and make it easy), so we launched a Tor 
hidden service at http://writeas7pm7rcdqg.onion, which our Android app and 
command-line client (https://write.as/cli.html) support. It can be enabled in 
Android with the "Always Use Tor" setting, but if you're already an Orbot user, 
the app will use Tor by default.

We released a Chrome extension called Paste (https://paste.as) which makes it 
easy to share text from your browser. This is experimental, but is a great way 
to get started on Write.as. It's also open source, where we welcome any 
feedback or contributions: https://github.com/writeas/paste-chrome

Finally, in our latest Android/Chrome OS update we added drafts, so you don't 
need to be online or even publish anything to use Write.as. We also fully 
translated the latest version to German — a special thank you goes to Marlon 
Yesil for contributing! If you would like to help translate Write.as to your 
native language, we'd be infinitely grateful — feel free to get in touch at 
hello@write.as.

We've heard from several users over the past few weeks, and we couldn't be 
happier to be building a product that has helped further free expression. We'll 
continue listening to feedback and answering your questions — if you have a 
story or thoughts to share, we're always on Twitter @writeas__ and email.

We'll see you later.
