Get started

Make your first post.

Gibbet has a handful of post types, each suited to a different kind of share. Here’s a quick tour, plus a five-step walkthrough so your first one lands smoothly.

The five-step walkthrough

Posting on Gibbet happens in the mobile app. Once you’ve signed in:

  1. 1
    Open the composer
    Tap the green + button on the bottom tab bar. The composer slides up from the bottom of the screen.
  2. 2
    Pick where it goes
    At the top of the composer, choose a community to post in — or leave it on your profile to share with your followers instead.
  3. 3
    Pick a post type
    Swipe across the type chips (text, image, poll, blog, quiz, link, VOD). The composer changes based on what you pick — a poll asks for options, a link asks for a URL, and so on.
  4. 4
    Write it out
    Add your text, attach images, set up your poll, or paste your link. The preview at the bottom of the composer shows exactly how your post will look in the feed.
  5. 5
    Ship it
    Tap Post. Your post lands in the feed instantly, you earn a few gubbles, and your daily streak ticks forward if it's your first post of the day.

Every post type, explained

Pick the one that fits what you want to share. You can always switch types mid-draft.

📝
Text post
Just words — quick thoughts, updates, jokes.

The simplest post on Gibbet. Type what you want to say and ship it. Great for everyday updates, questions to your community, or a quick reaction to something happening in your world.

Best for: A thought you want to share right now.
🖼️
Image post
One image or a small gallery, with an optional caption.

Attach a photo or a set of images. Add a caption if you want to set the scene. Images get a tap-to-zoom lightbox in the feed so people can actually see what you posted.

Best for: Photos, screenshots, art, memes, or anything visual.
📊
Poll
Ask the community to vote — see results live.

Write a question, add 2–6 options, and let your community pick. Votes tally in real time and you can see how the room is split as it happens. Polls show up everywhere posts do, plus on the /polls page.

Best for: Quick decisions, fun debates, gauging interest before you commit to something.
📝
Blog
Long-form writing with a title and rich text.

Like a text post but with room to breathe. Add a title, headings, links, and as many paragraphs as you want. Blogs get their own dedicated /blogs feed and tend to attract longer, more thoughtful replies.

Best for: Essays, devlogs, deep dives, recaps, anything you want to take your time on.
❓
Quiz
Multi-choice questions with a right answer.

Write a question, give people answer choices, and mark which one is correct. Anyone scrolling the feed can tap an answer and instantly see if they got it right. Quizzes show up on the /quiz feed.

Best for: Trivia, lore checks, teaching something in your niche, fun community challenges.
🔗
Link post
Share a URL with a rich preview card.

Paste any link — articles, YouTube videos, Bandcamp tracks, anywhere on the web. Gibbet pulls a preview (title, thumbnail, description) so people know what they're clicking before they leave the app.

Best for: Sharing something you found that you want your community to see.
📺
VOD
Long-form video stored on your profile.

Upload or attach a longer video — a stream archive, a tutorial, a behind-the-scenes clip. VODs live in the /vods directory and on your profile so people can find them after the moment passes.

Best for: Replays, edited content, anything that's worth keeping around.
