Independentzines, unflattened.page by page
Pressrun is a publishing platform for fanzine makers. We don't reformat your spreads into a feed, we don't summarise your work for a preview, and we don't tell anyone what to read next. Upload it the way you made it. Readers turn the pages.

four things we do / three we refuse
Preserve the page as laid out.
Upload PDFs or image sequences. Aspect ratios, bleeds, weird centrefolds — untouched. We don't crop covers to 16:9 so they fit a card in a feed.
Margin notes, not comment threads.
Readers pin notes to a specific point on a specific spread. Everyone sees the same conversation; no timeline, no reply-soup.
A plain-text email when an issue drops.
One-click subscribe. We do not digest. We do not re-engage you. We send a note, once, when the zine you follow publishes.
Rank. Recommend. Re-target.
- × No algorithmic feed, "trending," or "for you".
- × No ads, sponsored content, or paywalls.
- × No comments section below the zine.
discovery is a directory, a search bar, and a recommendation from a friend.

Free to publish, free to read. Bring a PDF or a folder of spreads. We'll give it a page, a permalink, and a subscribe button. That's all.
