More people are writing on Ellipsus than ever before—and reading, too. (That's right, our new Reader links have made quite the splash!) With 400k writers in Ellipsus working on _4 million docs_... whoever said _"reading is dead"_ needs to take a look at these numbers! 😵‍💫

We've released dozens of features, improvements, and fixes since our last update. Here's your TL;DR in case you missed it!

## Introducing: the Reader!

This month's crowning glory is **the Reader.** 👑

(Oh, it's beautiful...)

Now, you can share Reader links to your work with friends and on socials. In the Reader, you can:

- Enable **props** to get appreciation from readers—when reading, show your love with the 👏 button!
- Enable **comments** and replies for fangirling and feedback. Add gifs, emojis, and spoilers for _ye old internet_ vibes.
- Set the right **access level** (private, collaborators, public) and choose whether **copying** your text is allowed.
- Choose a **theme** for your audience to set the mood. Readers have the option to change themes, toggle accessible fonts, and more.
- You can also hide **spoilers** in Reader comments with formatting!

## .docx Import and Export

Moving your work from GDocs & Word just got that much easier. Import your your docs quickly (one by one, or a bunch at once!), or export your docs to .docx whenever you want.

Importing your work just got a whole lot easier.

## Document zoom

From 50% to 200%, get the right dimensions with independent browser & document zoom settings.

Zoom in on desktop or mobile!

## Emoji picker

You can insert emojis in both editor comments and Reader comments using the emoji picker icon. (Or in a doc, just type a _colon_ and the _first three letters_ of your **:favorite emoji:** and see it materialize!)

All the emojis!

## Other improvements

- **Snippets** now default to your current Ellipsus theme. Share away!
- You can **hide text highlights** in the Reader via the display settings (where theme editing lives).
- Navigating around the app got faster with rendering upgrades.
- **Document & draft info** has moved to the document card (it was formerly in the right-hand toolbar).
- We've fixed a number of bugs around sync and sync-warning banners.
- We're now posting **Ellipsus tutorials & writing content** on YouTube. [**Smash that subscribe >**](https://www.youtube.com/@ellipsus_/shorts)

## Meanwhile, on the blog...

We took a hard look and deep-dove into the world Google built: the (lack of) privacy, (mis)use of our data, and the money that flows out of their surveillance machine.

Ellipsus exists, grows, and thrives thanks to the prolific, passionate, super creative, and _slightly_ obsessive writers and readers (like you!)—proof that human creativity isn’t going anywhere.

So keep writing, keep reading—the LLM-industrial-complex doesn’t stand a chance.

Happy writing,

The Ellipsus team
