108 sites are live, dozens more signed on: Hear what partners have to say

It's been great working with @NewspackPub! Really cool to see all these very different sites, including @Oaklandside, take shape from the same building blocks. A thoughtful, accessible approach. https://t.co/K2GhSDAIyP

I bet they are "pleased"! I would say super entusiastic… I have installed the plugin/theme newspack and i think that this is the future for the online news platform. I cant wait to see whats up next… Thx for all the work you are puting in.

Newspack provides us with greater choice and flexibility in the presentation of our content and agility to adapt to best serve the needs of readers. The new platform also provides us with the tools we need to experiment with various membership and newsletter acquisition tactics, and we greatly appreciate the Newspack team’s openness and commitment to continual improvement and innovative solutions.

Our constellation of launched sites

Maybe the most interesting thing for us was that Newspack team and other news sites from the pilot program proposed things that we didn’t consider for our site, such as an ultra-flexible donation system or workflow systems. We see a lot of power in that collaborative way to develop a product.

In getting involved with the Newspack project, I was most keen about performance. For more than a decade, I've struggled to have great performance for all media projects I am involved in. It just cost so much & needed lots of skill. Look at this orgasmic performance! AMP-native!! pic.twitter.com/MSD30gUZTX

We are off and rolling and feeling unshackled in a way, as we had settled for a limited, unremarkable website for too long. Now we have many easy-to-deploy visual and engagement tools, including for the home page, and it all tends to spur your imagination.
