Hi! 👋 During lockdown I wanted to hack on something fresh so I built a blogging app for my personal sites which had languished, gathering dust as they often do. I enjoyed building it and I really like using the app – the lack of friction to publish has definitely encouraged me to write a lot more, which is kind of the main point of the product. I hadn't planned to make it public to be honest, but I received some positive early feedback so I figured I'd put it out there to see what people think (good, or bad!). The key features are: ✅ Host up to 5 unique blogs per account ✅ Custom domain support with automatic TLS certs ✅ Auto-saving editor ✅ Rich media embeds ✅ Built-in page view stats (no need for Google Analytics) ✅ Email subscriptions ✅ Private posts ✅ Fully responsive design Thanks for checking it out! 😊

Awesome stuff! This might be the moment to retire my Blogger account ... which I’ve been waiting for for 10 years.

@chrija Hey! Thanks. Just a bit of fun really. Alas there is no import function, which I have decided is a feature not a bug. Fresh start and all that! 😅

Where is everything hosted? Is content monitored/moderated or censored?

@gregw Everything is hosted with Digital Ocean in London except for the images which are with Digital Ocean Amsterdam (their storage service isn't in London yet). Moderation (inc. censorship) is on my mind and I think it's important. If the product gets traction (big IF!) it won't be free because I think that leaves it far more open to abuse. I will have to create a privacy policy and T&Cs that makes it clear what's acceptable and not, and then figure out how to moderate the content and shut down any abusers. Potential nightmare if I'm being honest, and this has definitely made me reluctant to launch at all, but we'll see what happens. I doubt there will be much traction tbh, it's mainly a bit of fun.

@lylo I don't envy you, however if you were to discover just how to keep universally egregious things like child exploitation and real terrorist propaganda out, yet allow a free exchange of opinions to exist unfettered, you would have something that no other platform currently offers anymore.

@gregw To be honest, the most likely thing I will do with the app if anything like this happens is close subscriptions, open source the code and people can self host as they see fit 🤷‍♂️

Design is minimal and simple, UI is easy to navigate. I couldn't really preview my blog because the subdomain wouldn't load. Would be nice to have support for hotkeys like notion-style "/" while creating content.

@mohamed_habib1 thanks for the feedback. Sorry about the preview, having DNS issues with Cloudflare 😬
